Having it in the Files Reports would tell me which files don't have a Semantic Type (ST).

But, something I hadn't realised until now is that any one ST can only be applied to one file - I knew a file couldn't have a multiple STs, but didn't appreciate reverse was true -- i.e the relationship must to be 1:1.

That means I can't have a book with 4 files marked Notes or 3 marked Index. It explains my - "I'm sure I marked that file as Notes" - puzzlements

I've been interpreting the word 'semantic' according to its common/normal/classical adjectival meaning; that it's sometimes used in this context as a noun <cringe, sigh> should have warned me.

The wombat has the measure of it - rename the files
