Whatever happened to the SVG flowcharts? It'd be much easier to tell from
those. But upon manual inspection, I'm pretty sure that the only way to
section 62 is this:

    1 -> 105 -> 315 or 202 -> 100 -> 133 -> 49 or 262 -> 238 -> 84 -> 287 ->
62

which has no money spent or lost anywhere.

I also found these along the way:

(??) 16tlov 105: you choose not to dwell here -> you choose not to delay
here [tp: Or "tarry" or "stop" or any of numerous other synonyms; anything
but "dwell", which (notwithstanding the phrase "dwell on/upon") I've never
seen used to mean "stay for a little while", rather than "take up
residence"]
(??) 16tlov 105: give rise for concern -> give cause for concern [tp: Or
perhaps "give rise to concern"]
