That explains why faint areas are difficult for me to catch, but not
why Supra will continue to show more and more stars even on exposures
longer than 300 minutes.

Most likely it would  be an improper scan and I plan to post a question
regarding that ASAP. I have always had my film developed by the
recommeneded process, C-41 for Supra, E-6 (?) for the one roll of E200
I've done. John's comment indicated that push processing wouldn't be
needed unless it would help get the hump of the histogram fully into
the box. Is pushing a good idea?
