What's wrong with this DNA confirmation?

I'm getting suggestions 213 and 313, Missing Father's/Mother's DNA Confirmation, on some profiles and can't figure out what's triggering it. Davis-19306 is one example; I saw suggestion 313 and thought a missing L in "maternal" in the confirmation statement was the problem, but it's also showing suggestion 213. As far as I can tell, I'm using the format that's on the Help:DNA_Confirmation page.

Am I missing something subtle in the DNA confirmation statement that I can easily fix? Or shall I mark this as a false error and get on with my life?

According to the Help page: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:DBE_213

you are missing the word "confirmed"

Suggestion page states maternal / paternal and word confirmed.  Review the DNA Source Citation examples where it shows the word 'confirmed', not 'supported by', minor wording change, but that is what the Suggestion states the words it is looking for.

Should it be under a ‘DNA’ heading above Sources instead of among the sources?

nope. not relevant. (no such requirement)

edit: not the cause of the error.

The DNA Confirmation statement is supposed to be included in the Sources section - DNA Source citation examples
