Just to clarify, I am already using filters to control the report results. I filter out Display Network and Display Campaign Optimizer criteria IDs (3000006 and 3000000), deleted keywords, keywords in deleted ad groups, and negative keywords.
I even tried filtering out keywords with zero impressions (although I really prefer not to do this because the *number of results* is more important to me than whether all results have impressions. I definitely want to have *enough* results in case of an account with few performative keywords). I am also using date ranges. None of this has been enough.
