I don't know if I have the WTH around anywhere, so I can't speak to the
tables easily.
On the subject of M0-4 stars working, it is my understanding they can. (Heck
Mire has an M0V, and I don't think anyone has tried to change it.) It was
just the dinky red dwarfs that were the issue (e.g. Alell).
If I remember right, the problem with both giants and main sequence stars
O,B,A is that they just don't last the couple billion years required for
life to develop. That said, it isn't as necessary to worry about the giants,
as a few habitable worlds around a giant is cool for the type of SF that is
Traveller.

I still have to loop back and finish looking at the earlier one, but I
think there's still something going on in 3 and 4 based on other remarks
about M0-4 being too cold, and giants being inadmissible.
Is it your understanding the using the habitable zones table is adequate,
or that there is something beyond that?
