I expect it's just sequences which match, but not perfectly. This is the
difference between the "enter all readings" parameter in the GUI. When set to
false, sequences which match, but not well enough, are rejected. The
expectation is that you'll delay entering these until all the sequences have
been tried, and then you'll try entering them again.

The alternative (enter all) is to put such sequences in a new contig instead,
just as if they hadn't matched at all.
