I believe you are correct, Sir.
Touche.
Well, the only other option I can come up with is perhaps Sauron
was in possession of the Nine, but did not always physically keep them on his person. I don't think it was beyond his power to have created a storage place for them where they were available to him, but inaccessable to the Nazgûl.
