Actually, the full list of possibilities is a bit larger.
I have no clue how likely the obscure possibilities listed here are though.

You find the complete (i hope so at least) list below.
possibilities are listed as

>From X to Y using:
  * Z

where X would be a candidate 'true' point group Y the 'observed' point
group P622 and Z the twin law.

Some point groups have funny names such as C 1 2 1 (2*y,-x+y,z). This
indicates that the point group is equal to C2, albeit in a somewhat
nonstandard setting [Note that C 1 2 1 (x+y,-x+y,z) is not equal to  C 1
2 1 (2*y,-x+y,z)].

>From C 1 2 1 (2*y,-x+y,z)   to  P 6 2 2  using :
  *  h+k,-h,l

>From P 6   to  P 6 2 2  using :
  *  -h-k,k,-l

>From C 2 2 2 (x+y,2*y,z)   to  P 6 2 2  using :
  *  -h-k,k,-l

>From P 3 2 1   to  P 6 2 2  using :
  *  -h,-k,l

>From C 2 2 2 (2*x,x+y,z)   to  P 6 2 2  using :
  *  -h,h+k,-l

>From C 1 2 1 (x+y,-x+y,z)   to  P 6 2 2  using :
  *  h+k,-k,-l

>From C 1 2 1 (x+y,2*y,z)   to  P 6 2 2  using :
  *  -h-k,k,-l


>From C 1 2 1 (x-y,2*x,z)   to  P 6 2 2  using :
