关于名词修饰问题-which&that(已解决)

双色鹿

曼哈顿中说名词修饰语有两种，essential和non-essential。
essential修饰语和名词之间没有逗号，一般用that引导或用介词+which引导
non-essential修饰语和名词之间有逗号，用which引导。后面有一道题

原句：Regina returned the dress to the store, which was torn at one of the seams.

解析：Which was ... the seams: INCORRECT. This modifier is misplaced. It seems to describe store, the adjacent noun; however, the modifier should modify dress. Thus, we must move the modifier next to dress. Since the modifier is relatively short, we can get away with simply inserting it and setting it off with commas.

改正：Correction: Regina returned the dress, which was torn at one of the seams, to the store.



我的问题：

这个句子里面，which was torn at one of the seams应该是一个essential修饰语，为什么可以用逗号加which来引导呢？解释里的这句话大概说明了我的这个问题，但是我没有看懂：“Since the modifier is relatively short, we can get away with simply inserting it and setting it off with commas.”


恳请各位兄弟姐妹帮忙解答~

例子好妙啊：
the third house, which is red
the third house that is red

这种过了这么多年被江湖后人偶然翻阅到，就好像是偶得一本武林秘籍，后人拿到然后无限遐想当年此高人大战江湖时的英姿。。。。

PS：我是这么找到这里的：
OG2017-SC-748， 我在想programs, which 不可不可以用。OG说：The comma after programs is incorrect because the clause is meant to be restrictive

748. Many house builders offer rent-to-buy programs that enable a family with insufficient savings for a conventional down payment to be able to move into new housing and to apply part of the rent to a purchase later.
A. programs that enable a family with insufficient savings for a conventional down payment
to be able to move into new housing and to apply
B. programs that enable a family with insufficient savings for a conventional down payment
to move into new housing and to apply
C. programs; that enables a family with insufficient savings for a conventional down
payment to move into new housing, to apply
D. programs, which enables a family with insufficient savings for a conventional down
payment to move into new housing, applying
E. programs, which enable a family with insufficient savings for a conventional down
payment to be able to move into new housing, applying
