So this last milling would have succeeded then. However, your later
attempt to fix my error by milling again then fails because your mill
is In Production.

The price of an X crop should always be 1.x times the most expensive

The first attempt to change the name of land #75 was successful unless
proven otherwise,.  land isn't a rule defined entity, so nothing
forbids lands from having the same name.  As a result the second
attempt to change the name of land #75 failed because no land was
named land #75.
