In the staging environment, we raised InvertedLogicException inappropriately. At the first layer depth, getting the sizes of include to exclude backward is a major issue because the false positive rate is geared for the correct distribution. The error rate at subsequent depths is typically 0.5, so inversion is not a big deal.
In tests, this sort of inversion doesn't seem to happen, but with the real dataset it occurred at the third layer. We should have just carried on. This will need a point release.

At Depth 3, exclude set (374923) was < include set (412637). If you reached this exception, then either your input data had an uncountable iterator, or your filter length was insufficient, and you need to increase it. The only way to fix this issue is via a code update where you either manually swap the input 'include' and 'exclude' parameters and set the invertedLogic boolean to True upon construction, or set a larger min_filter_length.
