Whose capitals of length 10:
nouakchott wellington luxembourg
c = f = luxembourg
newzealand - wellington + mauritania - nouakchott = 57120758902197 = nlfpndyucym
But found nothing on that PublicNote. So must have missed something. Fun to learn about this though :)
Perhaps not, maybe I screwed something up, let me double check the solution again. Good stuff!

Damn my mistake, you've got it! I'll give the sats on SN! As I was double and triple checking this I was sometimes coming up with an ordinal that was off by 4, always 4. Couldn't figure it out, it clicked this morning when I was checking the Google Sheets, my formatting was changing the last digit to a 0 instead of 4.... Good work though, hope it was fun!

Wow! Thank you! Yes, it was fun, and I learned a lot (names of capitals and this entire "ordinal" concept. I know some sats I'll be waiting for now)
