Nope, the fundamentals appear to be sound:

Nope. In fact,  I would like to avoid having to do this if possible.
The code runs in a research data center, which means that all output
has to be checked for confidentiality, and I am not sure whether they
would allow me to use -trace- (using it obviously increases their work
load by a lot). I'll try to recreate the error using data I have on my
pc, but I'm not sure if this works. I basically hoped for an easy
solution in the spirit of "Your variable name is too long", but if
this problem turns out to be more difficult, I'll have to think of
something else...

Best,
Nils
