Yes I think it does contain all the rows. Perhaps the footnote is wrong. It satisfies the criteria as far as I can see.

I think, for cambridge though, that it does contain all 720 rows, as well as no rows appearing more than twice.  So I don't know what the footnote is supposed to mean.  What other criteria could there be that it fails for Cambridge?
