Notes on CartoCSS:

• Always specify zoom levels as either >= or < . Don't use = or =< or >
• Two space indents. No tabs.
• space after : but no before
• If there is a &minscale_zoom18;, ignore it. These really mess up any attempts to run the style at z19

Dashes, not underscores, in layer names

• Avoid restating defaults, e.g. don't add point-allow-overlap = false
