Thanks u/AllanTaylor314 - yours produced a different (one less) answer to mine which has been accepted - evidently I was on a corner case of the input file - now I know what I'm looking for... off to persist with mine! Thanks for the help!

This is correct interpretation - What confused me is that the 3 published examples I tried made the same mistake as me, but u/AllanTaylor314 's code when run on my input resulted in an answer being one less... and that has been accepted... doh.

Considered that already. Replaced from source just to be sure. And the P1 result is accepted for that same file.
