Suggestion to broaden XDV.1.2 to include everything under S:R346T branch.

The only XDV.1+S:R346T seqs were the N:I292T branch when XDV.1.2 was designated.
However as more seqs are submitted there are many more branches now. Suggest to broaden XDV.1.2 accordingly. @AngieHinrichs @corneliusroemer

They doesnt seem related if not the orf1a:L3116F carrying ones.

Or you think they are all related being mostly by Shanxi?

Like JN.1.16.1, they shall be assigned a name despite potential separate occurence.

Yeah but already assigned, it is very rare that a lineage has been broadened or tightened, classical example AY.41 that was designated too deep leavig out a lineage, sibling of AY.103, that was deadly in eastern Europe during summer 2021.

They do not have a name and is under the general XDV.1, while XDV.1.2 now starts from N:I292T

i mean most of them are on XDV.1.2 with starting with 346T it would become the collector of XDV.1 +346T but likely already hard to think there will be new emergence of 346T directly from the politomy after many months around so likely worth broadening it.
