We currently have seven cases where the strat_tree table contains multiple parents for a single child. There are a few duplications, but others appear to be hierarchy inversions relative to what is assigned in GeoLex. This appears to arise in a few cases when the suffix of a unit implies a lower hierarchy level than the actual relationship (e.g., various "Complexes" which are contained within the "White Mountain Plutonic Suite").
We should fix these instances, but should multiple parents per child be allowed at all? That adds significant complexity and potential for dangling edges to the hierarchy navigation code.
