Hi every one,
how is it possible that there is colinearity between bunch of variables, and there is only one colinear equation?

The reason is numerical. A computer always has to make a decision what to take as 0, even if it is not exactly 0. If you look into model_diagnostics, you will see that some choices have to be made what to count as singular as opposed to close to singular. The output of model_diagnostics should thus be seen as providing guidelines what to look at. You should not interpret it as a strict analytical statement.

Thanks,
I am removing the rigidities to find the problem.
