Thanks for the explanation BFSGrad, looking at the airport diagram , was the initial taxi clearance and pilot read back for Runway 1 or 33 ? If it was for holding point (bay) Runway 1 and it was read back as such , then it is another Pilot error picked up ny ATC, similar to the JFK one . . not really the same as Austin ., and not really ATC related except once again the use of expedited non-standard phraseology (if the "cross 4 at J " was the only instruction issued ) which seems to be one of the common contributing factor in all these

You can search the FAA database here. Looks to me like there were something like 150 in 2019, but not sure how to restrict the search to major airports.
. Thanks for that link , well the stats do differentiate between national and regional airports , and can be separated in months and comparing the last 5 months of 22/23 with 2020/21 shows very similar numbers, even on the decrease . No sure what the PD and VPD categories mean though ,
