- Decide whether a route through another row is a second spelling of one result:
`city[Oslo].country.name` and `country[NO].name` always render `Norway`, and goal 4
refuses a second spelling, while `country[NO]` and `country[Norway]` both select one

- Decide whether a goal 5 violation joins the comprehension gate's exception list: the
