this took me so fucking long and in the end i just went for brute force anyway. there are still remnants of some of previous, overly complicated, failed attempts, like the hideous global removed. In the end, I realized I was fucking up by using remove() instead of pop(), it was causing cases with duplicates where the removal of one would yield a safe result to count as unsafe.
