If I was Mike (which I'm not;-) I wouldn't know which bit to change
given this comment.

I just read that section and it says (in the third para)

  Each item in the population is assigned to exactly one group: the
  assignment of items to groups depends on the group-by, group-adjacent,
  group-starting-with, and group-ending-with attributes.

This seems to me to be fairly explicit that each item ends up in exactly
one group, so in particular no items are removed, but section 14 is a
fairly long section so perhaps it's less clear later on?
