Steve, you are confusing THE grounding electrode conductor which goes
to "any convenient electrode" unspliced.

250.26(F) To Electrode(s). A grounding electrode conductor shall be
permitted to be run to any convenient grounding electrode available in
the grounding electrode system or to one or more grounding
electrode(s) individually. The grounding electrode conductor shall be
sized for the largest grounding electrode conductor required among all
the electrodes connected to it.

Subsequent "bonding jumpers" between supplemental electrodes and be
made up with any listed connecting device as long as it remains
accessible.

250.68 Grounding Electrode Conductor and Bonding Jumper Connection to
Grounding Electrodes.
(A) Accessibility. The connection of a grounding electrode conductor
or bonding jumper to a grounding electrode shall be accessible.
.
Look at the picture again. That is from the NEC handbook- Hide quoted text -

I found an interesting article on it he

If you skip to the section on splicing I think it addresses the topic
at hand. I might be way out in left field, too, I don't know. This
is all very new to me.
