That's true, and that's why I arranged to have these widths in the
"est_width" tag rather than the "width" tag. For the curious, here's
the numbers across the database:

 est_width | count
-----------+-------
 0         |     6
 1         |     9
 1.25      |  9505
 1.5       |     4
 1.75      | 25209
 2         |    18
 2.5       | 27090
 3         |     2
 4         |     3
 6.5       |     1

If there's any other questions regarding the data, feel free to ask!

Cheers,
Andy
