Bug - Fixed Modifier Maxmizer assumes Helm of Boris is a free pull in a non-boris HC run

I've run a few Boris runs in a row and bought the IotM helm. I decided to do an AT run to use karma to perm some songs, and the maximizer keeps trying to pull/equip the Boris' Helm even though I can't in HC that isn't Boris.

Steps to reproduce:
Have Boris' Helm.
Ascend into a non-Boris HC path (mine was AT).
Run maximizer. (without argument, or with initiative since it is hard to have an item with more to start out)
The helm keeps appearing as "free pull & equip hat Boris's Helm"

(same in SC, where it can actually cost an unintended pull - at least I assume so, I never let the maximizer autoexecute things that don't make sense to me, and didn't have budgeted pulls anyway)

Now that I am no longer doing boris runs I am finding this bug troublesome.

The maximizer won't suggest a lesser helm and throws an error when it is incapable of pulling the helm.

There are work-arounds. I can either add "-equip Boris Helm" to the end of relevant expressions or else make sure to put my helm in my display case or shop before ascending. That will get me through until the bug is fixed.

Code:
[COLOR="olive"]> maximize init[/COLOR]

Maximizing...
40 combinations checked, best score 115.0
Pulling items from storage...
[COLOR="#FF0000"]You need 1 more Boris's Helm to continue.[/COLOR]
[COLOR="#FF0000"]Unable to meet all requirements via equipment changes.[/COLOR]
See the Modifier Maximizer for further suggestions.
