This issue is likely caused by these records being interpreted as multiple productions due to the number of spaces in their cells. This can be fixed by requiring 5 spaces to trigger a multiple production; however, this causes ~1.5k multiple productions to not be counted by the script. May require a more complex re pattern or these instances treated as exceptions.
