I see all of them, but 29 and 6 take a moment or two to "set in".  I
don't know whether it needs inattention, or tight focus or what.  Once
I "see" them, they stayed clear.

In the lower test, I initially saw an 8 (a combination of the 5 (good)
and reversed 2 (bad)).  Once I read the narrative, the five popped
into view and is rock solid now.

Does my weakness with the 29, 6 and lower test mean that I have a
"reduced" red ability?  I remember the car Wendy was driving just
after her separation from her first husband.  To men it was red, but
to women it was brown.  The interior was brown, which meant that the
colours must have been chosen by a woman.
