This is because MPIACTS.Decided is true for every row
that ever appears as the first interaction in the
multi-party interaction collection.   This needs
to be fixed in the data - you and I got it wrong
somehow.

I do see one problem.  Do we have a rule that when the
sequence number is one the MPIACTS code must all be
the same?  I think not, and maybe we don't care.
But, if any one of the sequence number 1 MPIACTS codes
have TRUE in the Decided column then the corresponding
MPI_EVENTS.Decided column will also be true.

Please think about if we want such a rule and if
we want MPI_EVENTS.Decided to behave this way.

Goes to the docs for the MPIS.Context_types column for me.
Maybe you need to reload the page to clear the browser cache?
