I undid my solution and applied yours and it works perfectly – and the bottom empty row is gone, too (so, no need for the icon modification).
I can see that my confusion was due to reading the instructions from the perspective of an absolute position of the code (their row numbers). My editor arbitrarily adds blank rows here and there. So, without an actual code example to search/find it would have been impossible for me to apply the fix when just looking for a row number.
