    I got all but 4 this time. Again, a fun gimmick! Knowing normal enumeration rules means it's easy to spot the tricksters. If you ever do it again, you could specify that certain enumerations are actually just wordplay? "Homes for a creature that collects pollen, hurries about (5)", for example.

      The beauty about this type of puzzle is that the solver gets to figure that out
