Yes, because I'm anal.

First, there were tusks, and now, there are sheiks. More confusing: the stroke count for the primitive is listed as 10, but is counted as 11 for all the characters it's in. I'll have to look up the errata: I knew that RtK III was bad, but I didn't expect something this early on.

My kanjigen says that 璃 is 15 strokes, and I trust that more than Wakan. It also gives 13 for 禽, 17 for 檎, and 19 for 離, so it's consistently counting the sheik as 11 strokes.
