Unaired tasks should not be counted unless all first official race visits have first tasks there.

While some are eventually identified by Racers or bystanders, not all are, but based on what you are trying to identify that should be noted.

Give some examples, I can't off hand think of one.

It becomes evident in how a segment is edited. If a team starts a leg reading the destination but nothing about exactly where they were to go on arrival, it’s a safe bet that either the departure route marker directed a team elsewhere first, the audio was spliced to add in the first destination shown, or Phil provided that information by voiceover or by editing in a stand up.
TPTB often don’t decide until they are editing the episode in post production, and in this season’s case might have done so only when they had the schedule for broadcast of the episode.

Not sure if this has been mentioned before, but Brodie & Kurt are the first 5th placers to win more than 2 legs.
