What this means
The live marks span classes 7, 9, 16, 17, 21, 24, 25, 35, 36, 38, 39, 40, 42, 44. A live mark in class 7 is not the same problem as one in class 44 — the risk depends on which class you sell in. The same word can often coexist in an unrelated class, but not in the same or a coordinated one.
