Glad to hear some positive reports on usefulness! This has also revealed several duplicates for me. Not as many as in your screenshot, but several.
I believe that the duplicates are purely down to the lists having different IDs (so a function of the Mailing List submailbox “for each” condition). I’m probably going to explore what the options are there next, though I suspect we might be limited somewhat in what we can achieve.
