You did not catch the point. An ISA card does not generate the NMI for
parity error; the parity error is generated on the mainboard itself (that
is, if the ISA card is not a memory card). So, you don't get that parity
error signal.

It's not a parity of the data bus or so, it's a parity of the memory.

Hope that clears something,
