   * {{{<gap>}}} makes sense
   * {{{<sc>}}} is missing, but later on they do recognize small caps. It seems that they recognize it when there are in fact capital letters in different sizes (as in {{{S<sc>ULPHIS</sc>}}} on p.306), but not when the larger capital letter is missing. 
-  * {{{^2}}} consistently becomes {{{ # 2}}}, which makes no sense and is in fact counter-productive; # is the symbol for another column in the table. The special instructions introduced a new way of marking superscript. Was the rule too complicated? Not really. (Compare this with Greek text: There are initially many mistakes, and only after some time the error rate decreases. Does it mean that special instructions should be used only where they cannot be avoided?)

   * They have ignored the rule that {{{\2.S\2.t}}} should become {{{\4.St}}}. One could argue that it doesn't make sense to make them think in chemical terms, and it can easily be corrected via some post-processing.
   * They have typed the page number {{{( 3 )}}} simply as 3, and so on.
