Aren't include/exclude expressions supposed to be "relative to starting
directory"?  I.e. ./[N-Z]*.

Personal style comments, I tend to leave "/" out of DLE tags to
show they are not paths.  Also the name is "/trelAM" suggesting it
includes only the A-M dirs.  But that doesn't match the pattern.
The pattern is everything except the N-Z dirs.  There could be
some dirs in both, eg. /trel/foodir.  I typically use includes
rather than excludes and have an extra "catch the rest" DLE
that does an exclude.  So they would be include ./[A-M]*,
include ./[N-Z]*, and finally exclude ./[A-Z]*.
