POS: Adjective, Noun, Proper Noun?
Usage: like bonus?
Alius bonus nullus erit.?
Anyway. Forms of Latin ethnonyms/demonyms. I don't think there are any 4th- or 5th-declension demonyms/ethnonyms.
There might also be a distinct relational adjective in -icus, -ius, -ānus, -ēnsis; see L&S on Crēta
Nationality or ethnicity:
Feminines: Cĭlissa
Any national/ethnic name can be extended with the suffix -icus, forming a "relational adjective"(?):
The adjective-forming suffix -ius:
The adjective-forming suffix -ānus forms demonyms and also "non-ethnic" adjectives?
The adjective-forming suffix -ēnsis forms demonyms, i.e. "inhabitant of X". It is commonly used substantively for inhabitants of cities. Also "non-ethnic" adjectives from countries?
"Histros, Hispanos, Massiliensis, Hilurios, / mare superum omne, Graeciamque exoticam, / orasque Italicas omnis, qua aggreditur mare, / sumus circumuecti." (Plautus uses Massiliensis alongside Hispanos)
-īnus: also used to form demonyms for cities, as well as relational adjectives.
-aeus: Cȳrēnaeus
The feminine adjective-forming suffix -is, -idis:

The culprit seems to be "noneut", for some reason? But "Aprīlis" has noneut and merges correctly... so is it affected by the nominative singular in specific being different? Hmm. If I add "nom_sg_f=November", we get this:

(this is made with make_table_m_and_f)
So, let's go through make_table_m_and_f line-by-line. 817-831 is just defining "conv" as a table(?) with the M and F forms. Then we call "convert" with both data and conv as parameters. (That's likely where things go wrong?) Lines 835-848: The columns are hard-coded at this point to be separated as Masculine | Feminine. Yeah, the rest seems to be just table-formation stuff. So the place where things go wrong must be in "convert".
If I remove 59-60 ("(data.accel and data.accel.lemma or nil) == (data.accel and data.accel.lemma or nil)") then I get the following error: "Lua error in Module:la-nominal at line 586: assertion failed!", but it doesn't apply to the version with nom_sg_f=November. Module:la-nominal at line 586 says "assert(data.accel.lemma == accel_lemma)" Ah, there's more about it here in Module:la-nominal. "if data.noneut then If noneut=1, we're being asked to do a noun like Aquītānus or Rōmānus that has masculine and feminine variants, not an adjective. In that case, make the accelerators correspond to nominal case/number forms without the gender, and use the feminine as the lemma for feminine forms."
With the vocative also:

Yeah, so there's some kind of unnecessary dependency of the oblique and plural forms on the nominative singular.

OK ... "slots_equal" is only called once. What exactly does this mean? "when noneut=1 is set, the masculine slots will have the masculine lemma but the feminine slots will have the feminine lemma". What is the accelerator?
noneut is in the following functions: make_table_mfn_pl, make_table_mfn_sg, make_table_mfn, make_table. In make-table, it isn't directly called, just passed through. In make_table_mfn, we have "noneut and 'Masc./Fem.' or 'Masc./Fem./Neut.'"). This determines the header of the column: if noneut=1, it is "Masc./Fem.", whereas if noneut=0, it is "Masc./Fem./Neut.".
So, the non-merged table is built by make_table_m_and_f. Whereas the merged table (where there is no separate female nominative singular form) is built by make_table_mfn. Or is it? The merged table still has separate headers... Oh, I did that by saying "nom_sg_f=November", so there is a nominative singular, so that should be going through make_table_m_and_f after all.
When is "Masc./Fem./Neut." even used?

Miscellaneous special cases (not fitting so well into patterns):
Possible parameters: For the ones that can be two genders, I don't know whether using a comma as in "f, n-pl" and "m, f" is best, or something else like "f/n-pl" and "m/f".
pastrix ferastrix persuastrix = persuasor estrix = esor/estor? succestrix = successor praedecestrix gestrix, mestrix adsestrix/assestrix possestrix possessor ministrix (minister? cf. ministratrix) pistrix = pistor adsistrix resistrix (*resistor?) assistrix defenstrix defensor sponstrix sponsor tonstrix tonsor impostrix impostor suppostrix plaustrix plausor custrix custor
Fixed categorization bug, but there's still a need to distinguish between use of la-adj in cases like ōcior (treated as a lemma because no positive form exists) from use of la-adj-comp in cases like doctior (treated as a non-lemma because positive forms exist). Cases like catholicior, which use the wrong headword template, can be located by searching for incategory:Latin third declension adjectives and Latin comparative adjectives, also "incategory:"Latin adjectives" incategory:"Latin comparative adjectives"".
Comparatives like catholicior were miscategorized in Category:Latin third declension adjectives of one termination. The culprit ultimately may be Module:la-adj/data, via Module:la-nominal and Module:la-headword.

Zumpt says month names don't occur in the neuter: "Note 2. The names of the months, September, October, November, December, also belong to this class of adjectives. As adjectives, however, they are defective, since the neuter never occurs, and the masculine and feminine scarcely in any other connection than with mensis (masc.), Calendae, Nonae, and Idus. Horace uses libertate Decembri."
The only form in "-embre" I see in PHI is in Festus, "mense Decembre".
No Octobre. We do find "mense Octobri".

hebes only has neuter plural in -ia, but it has a genitive plural in -um as well as -ium (both postclassical). Is this related to gender?
impotum is listed in the below:
Among others: pugilum, degenerum, congenerum, celerum, compotum, puberum, uberum, consortum, inopum.
This is a questionable list. Consortum seems to be eventually attested, but not in Cl L. Then again, is cōnsortium attested as a genitive plural?
