O5.52 says Gutted Factories are all Roofless...and O5.4 says Roofless 
Factories all have Factory Debris...which O5.41 says only exists within the 
building depiction.  So yes, the whole hex--or that part within the 
building--has Factory Debris.  Naturally, this leads you back to our earlier 
discussion of hexside and non-Inherent Terrain...which I would still say 
falls under A6.1 and means the hexside won't Hinder shots unless both hexes 
of that hexside have Factory Debris.
