Hi, may I ask what those "scope", "num" columns stand for?

In "idioms_pretrain.json" ,

idiom num explanation 偃武崇文 0 停息武备，崇尚文教。 洪乔捎书 0 指言而无信的人。 南郭先生 103 比喻无才而占据其位的人。

In "idioms_scopes.tsv",

scope idiom id Scope I 见义勇为 0 Scope II 偃武崇文 3848 Scope III 亏于一篑 33237

In "idiom_synonyms.tsv",

query synonym query_id synonym_id overlapping 黯然销魂 六神无主 14726 1333 0 黯然销魂 丧魂失魄 14726 2704 1 塞翁失马，焉知非福 塞翁失马，安知非福 24524 32175 8

I thought "overlapping" is related with the number of Chinese character overlapped, but the last one shows 8, which is presumably 7.

Thanks!

2. scope is defined as the following, which is removed from the camera-ready version as Scope III is not used, we will share the definition here.

3. This is due to the ， is also used to compute overlapping.
