Significant figures vs. absolute error

On NIST Avogadro’s Number, $N_A = 6.022;141;29 times 10^{23} text{ mol}^{-1}$ has 9 significant figures and a standard uncertainty of $0.000;000;27 times 10^{23} text{ mol}^{-1}$.

First, can it be written as the following?

$$ N_A = 6.022;141;29 times 10^{23} pm 0.000;000;27 times 10^{23} text{ mol}^{-1} $$
If yes, consider the following quote from Rice’s lab guide on error analysis (emphasis added):

Whenever you make a measurement, the number of meaningful digits that you write down implies the error in the measurement. For example if you say that the length of an object is 0.428 m, you imply an uncertainty of about 0.001 m. To record this measurement as either 0.4 or 0.42819667 would imply that you only know it to 0.1 m in the first case or to 0.00000001 m in the second. You should only report as many significant figures as are consistent with the estimated error. The quantity 0.428 m is said to have three significant figures, that is, three digits that make sense in terms of the measurement. Notice that this has nothing to do with the “number of decimal places”. The same measurement in centimeters would be 42.8 cm and still be a three significant figure number. The accepted convention is that only one uncertain digit is to be reported for a measurement. In the example if the estimated error is 0.02 m you would report a result of 0.43 ± 0.02 m, not 0.428 ± 0.02 m.

and the following quote from A Project of Joliet Junior College (IL), Lee College (TX) and the National Science Foundation (emphasis added):

The absolute error places bounds telling you that the actual value is expected to fall between x – D x and x + D x. The absolute error is an easy way to report the error and makes it easy to check that you are not reporting too many significant figures. For example, suppose you had a measurement that was reported to be 10.02 ± 0.3 m. Because the reported value is uncertain in the tenths place, it is wrong to report it to the hundredths place. It should be reported to the same decimal place as the absolute error: 10.0 ± 0.3 m. Another point is that the absolute error and the reported value must have the same units.

If there is such a convention (cf. Rice’s lab guide) and it is wrong to report more significant figures than is warranted by the absolute error (cf. the joint project’s guidelines), and NIST should have adhered to such convention and striven to be correct, is it true that NIST adheres and is correct because the standard uncertainty has two least significant digits (i.e., $27$)?

Had the standard uncertainty been $0.000;000;2text{ mol}^{-1}$, would NIST have reported Avogadro’s Number as $N_A = 6.022;141;3times 10^{23}$ with 8 significant figures?
