Right, which is why deletions at DYS390m and DYS390p are rare enough
to be considered UEPs which can reliably define subclades.
Finding DYS390<21 is a good indicator that something funky is going
on, but confirmation requires sequencing DYS390 which is why I am
encouraging FTDNA to add this to their advanced test offerings.
