I am of the opinion that this list was added-to over time; that someone double-checks every one that gets past the software and verifies is manually, and if it is rejected at that point, it's added to the list as to make the human's job easier the next time.

I say this because the list seems to be pretty detailed in some areas but not others. For example "F TOYOTA" is on the list, but no other make of car. My guess is someone actually attempted "F TOYOTA"; it was manually rejected and added to the list. That would also explain why a mispelled word like smagma is on the list.
