However, if the pisces foldout had been the same size as f72 (only 1 page longer), there would have simply been room for an aquarius, making it a completely normal sequence. And/or room for capricorn on the recto, giving room for an unusual capricorn beginning sequence, too. 

But speculating whether the pisces foldout could have ever been 1 page longer is a totally different topic, and I have no evidence that that was or could have been the case, so i'll just keep searching for both pisces first and capricorn first sequences. I've been checking for both for every entry, but I've found nothing certain so far for "pisces first" unfortunately.
