Okay, I've been reading and searching through these forums for a couple hours now and still haven't found the answer I'm seeking.
Yes, 2923.121 says you can't carry where there's a D license then turns around in 2923.121(B)(1)(e) and says it does not apply to :
"Any person who is carrying a valid license or temporary emergency license to carry a concealed handgun issued to the person under section 2923.125 or 2923.1213 of the Revised Code or a license to carry a concealed handgun that was issued to the person by another state with which the attorney general has entered into a reciprocity agreement under section 109.69 of the Revised Code and who possesses the firearm in a
retail store with D-6 and D-8 permits issued for that store under sections 4303.182 and 4303.184 of the Revised Code or a D-8 permit issued for that store under section 4303.184 of the Revised Code, as long as the person is not consuming liquor or under the influence of alcohol or a drug of abuse."
So, how do you read that? If they ONLY have a D-6 or D-8? If they have a D-6 .AND. D-8. Does it matter what other permits they have in addition to those two? For example, can you say, "They have a D-6, therefore it's legal.", ignoring they also have D2, D2X, D3, D3A etc. And if not, then what is the purpose of this exemption?
(Incidentally, all the classes are spelled out here.

P.S. To the Moderator: In view of all the discussion of this point scattered around the place, could there be some place set aside for this issue?
