I'll bet there are still some 1-many relationships lurking in there. Usually, we can spot them because they have numeric suffixes but sometimes, the repeating group is less obvious. For example, you have rental properties and you want to track expenses so you build columns. Gas, Oil, Electric, Water, Lawn, Snow.
Then you buy a new property with a pool and you have to change forms, queries, report, code to accommodate the new expense types. Turns out that expenses is a repeating group and the items belong in a separate, many-side table. That way when you find a new type, it is just a new row in the definition table. NOTHING else has to change.
