Default Errors in .gdf files related to spells

I've been playing around using Python scripts to compare spell lists contained in GCA files, and noticed that in the official .gdf file for Magic, Suspend Spell is given a prerequisite count of 0, in spite of having Counterspell as a prerequisite, which means that count should be 1 (since Counterspell does have a prerequisite count of 0). Made the title of this thread generic so I can post here if I notice anything else.

Huh, that's also errata for GURPS Magic since the prerequisite is incorrectly listed in the spell table in the back of the book (which, I'm guessing, is how this error crept into GCA).

It's also given a count of 0 in Thaumatology as well.

I'm pretty sure I redid the counts for the datafile because Thaumatology's count was riddled with issues.
