The Rule is clear. No matter how many changes are made to a group of
charges entirely on other charges, the most you can ever count is a
CD.
You get that CD by X.4.j.i. by changing type and tincture of the
tertiary charge. OR you get that CD by X.4.j.ii. by changing type only
from shamrock to fox. But you only get one.  The whole of X.4.j. is
beneath the sentence, "No more than one clear difference can be
obtained from changes to the same group of charges on other charges,"
which governs the subsections.
