Not true, it won't skip them ... my bad.

This @10 rule will in fact prevent channel 184 from getting used
together with HT40. It won't prevent anyone from using channel 184 as a
20 MHz channel because the kernel doesn't check the bandwidth for 20 MHz
channels at all.... (!)

These are in fact useless since they come *after* wider rules that
totally contain them, so they can't have any effect.
