It's a bit too early to know about the reliability of F001. So far the
number of false positives has fallen quite sharply and continues to
fall from what I can see. In addition, the new constraints on F001
will cause it to be much more reliable still (w/ regard to FPs).

I would say that the most conservative weight for symbol 63 would be
to weight it at the same weight as your average IP based blacklist.

A more moderate position might have the lowest rated SNF tests at
about 70% of your hold weight (this seems to be fairly common).

Hope this helps,
