Correct, I'm suggesting that if sky could reduce the music genre originates from 360-367 or somewhere further 540-579 range,  Entertainment & Documentaries Ex-spillover channels 350-399 and Sky Sports Active 480-489 correctly.  🤔

It could’ve been better in that regard, Sky will have to constantly reshuffle and hope to maintain roughly 100% unallocated slots. Weather new channel/removal.
