Yes, but even if there are only two soAp rows the is_aoe field
isn't redundant. It's needed to tell apart which of the two
rows is AOE :-)

I agree we should want to stay away from having more than one
soAp where is_aoe is false.

That, too. But they can be told apart virtue of the episode
link (which is what you really mean when you say health issue).
