I can't think of any changes in 1.3.3, but please do try the current

The early firmware didn't have that. It doesn't seem to affect anything,
but I should probably make it write that just so I don't have to
continue to explain that forever. :-)

I don't understand.

That seems right.   An explorist file can't be both routes and POIs.

It's a little wacky that you have two different routes in there,
though that should be legal.  If you delete the last two lines does
it change anything?
