But I'm pretty sure those 119.88 frames are actually supposed to be 23.976, as I've not experienced this desyncing even after removing over 20 of them... and yes, I went over it several times to make sure it really isn't out of sync.
And uh, 23.976 frames? You only remove 119.88 frames. 23.976 frames become part of the Assume... they're only removed to make the timecodes look prettier.

I've been going under the assumption that these single 119.88 frames are actually supposed to be 23.976, and they're marked as 119.88 for whatever reason.
In any case I've double-triple-dfsjsdfkjchecked for desync in every episode where I did this, and didn't notice any (there were 13 frames in one episode)... nobody ever complained about desync either.

So far I've only had to do this with one series though, so there may be sources where doing this does actually cause desync...
