Ah.. close, but not quite right. This is saying that there's exactly
one node at the bottom (cpu) level, which isn't what we want. Instead
of setting it to 0, we want to completely drop that layer, keeping it
unspecified.
To do that you need to change the first cell from 5 to 4 (since only 4
levels will be listed) and drop the last cell entirely.
