The only thing I find, which could be corrected by FTDNA, is that once you triangulate, then select individuals to chromosome browse, the individual you initially selected to triagualte with is NOT included in the chromosome browse & must be added once you get to the chromsome browser. Seems to me they could/should automatically include the triangulated individual to the list to show in the chromosme browser.

Agree. That was surprising to me, too (but then the ICW would count against one of the magic 5!).
