"Similar Moves" sometimes unintuitive

Defense Curl doesn’t show up on Harden’s “Similar Moves” list and vice versa; same with Minimize and Double Team. I’m assuming this is due to the “hidden effects”, but that’s not enough to make them dissimilar (if Selfdestruct shows up on Explosion’s similar moves, etc.)

What. Are we really doing this.

They ARE dissimilar for exactly that reason. :( Selfdestruct and Explosion are absolutely identical.

Since we’ve got String Shot and Electroweb being “similar” now, I sort of think this merits extra thought.
