Why does that work? It is very interesting, but what if I want to make a[0,0] a list as well?

That works for me, thank you very much. The Select line is particularly helpful.

Thanks for the explanation. I'm trying to figure out why it isn't working for me. My "test list" is: {{"test", "1"}, {"test", "1", "1"}, {"test", "1", "2"}, {"test", "1", "3"}, {"test", "1", "4"}, {"test", "1", "5"}, {"test", "2"}, {"test", "2", "1"}, {"test", "2", "2"}, {"test", "2", "3"}}; And the select line returns the entire list unmodified. The first element is a subset of the next few elements, so it should be removed, along with the {"test","2"} element.

I have tried it, and it works on symbols, but not on strings, which I don't really understand (I assume that the comparator for strings is different than for symbols, but I don't know how to fix it).

Probably not very high. The ! Or @@ Table[subsetQ[#, set], {set, Complement[lists, {#}]}] section isn't clear to me, care you expand on what that means? Also, any idea why this doesn't work with strings?
