    also seems to show a few contradictions.
    Why is Hunzib listed as having no syncretism in feature 28, but as having syncretism in relevant NP types in feature 50?
    Why are Beja, Hamtai, Rama, and Squamish listed as having no or minimal inflectional case-marking in feature 28, but as having syncretism in relevant NP types in feature 50?

    Why are Lavukaleve, Oneida, Zulu, and Swahili listed as having no morphological case-marking for feature 50 but case suffixes or case prefixes or mixed morphological case for feature 51?
