Well, there aren't *so many* issues. If the columns are fine with you,
they are fine with me too. Changing the references is not a problem.
(Well, if they keep changing every week, well, that could be a problem
for the well-being of the test suite).

Some things, like the chemical stuff, require someone who actually does
know what they are (I don't).

The whole point of having a test suite is to catch the regressions
before they pile up. I just reported everything I saw.

Best wishes
