fallback entries: Other and Accessories

The Devices for Sterilisation (Excluding Cat. D - Z) - Various branch runs 2 levels deep. One entry below is a branch heading that groups other codes rather than naming a device, so a classification has to resolve all the way down to one of the 8 codes marked terminal.

2 terminal codes are “- Other” entries and 1 is an “- Accessories” entry, 38% of the branch. An “- Other” code is the residual slot for devices its siblings do not name, so it is worth ruling out every specific sibling before settling on one.
