Now that I did some research, calling the knot by name 96-bend is somewhat ambiguous because the name applies to Hunter's Bend as well.
No, SmitHunter's joint is of same-handed overhands,
and so to a '9' would match a 'd', or 'b'/'6' & 'P'.
(Which is not to say that you might have found some
mistaken reference.)
