When I saw this, thats what it looked like to me.  We already know
that hw.x == 1 is invalid and added to a list to filter out but maybe
hw.y == 0 is invalid as well and it wasn't as obvious because of the
inversion.

Sound the following pre-existing line be expanded to its filtered?

       if (hw.z > 0 && hw.x > 1) {
