The only line I needed to remove was this: #+SEQ_TODO: which was the last line in the org file. This directive is listed in the Main Index of the org manual, but the link goes to #+TODO. There, it is mentioned that one may indeed write #+SEQ_TODO to be explicit. Perhaps it's the lack of arguments that is offensive?
