Yes. Not every event falls into a category mentioned above. For example, on 
login you have USER_ACCT and CRED_ACQ, both of which are not picked off and 
highlighted. Just the USER_AUTH and USER_START get counted. There are others 
like that all over. 

So, the short answer is that there are no guarantees that they all add up and 
yes there can be overlaps.
