Steve's right. I need a filter layer. So it's less than 51.

Using this as an example, I don't think this equivalence class generates any
valid
solutions since 'Tennessee' has to appear in both state pairs, e.g.:
New York:Tennessee & York New:Tennessee
I think that violates the "...form the names of two *other* U.S. States."
part of the original puzzle (I added the emphasis, of course).
