verb following relative pronoun "that" should point to projects and not
"one of the projects"

Here are 2 sentences that I came across that explain this subtle
difference --

1. Each of the books reminds me of her
2. Each of the books that rest on the table reminds me of her

In (1), reminds correctly refers to each of the books

In (2), introducing "that" requires the use of a plural verb
to refer back to "books"

Are there any other reasons why B is better than A?

"that" unlike "which" can modify a long phrase also. so when do we know that "that" is only modifying projects and not "one of the projects". Can anyone explain
