Comments from Submitter:
This completes the round of inv changes for the hoses in this set. The only other thing to consider doing is setting the match numbers so that all the hoses with nozzles are on one number and the the hose extensions are on another. There is no reason to think they can't be used interchangeably, and more than likely the transitions from one color to the next happened at different times for different parts.
A further word of explanation, to pull in the related requests. What we see now in the inventory are 4 sets of hoses, intended to be set off by the colors.
1) Old type with dual ends - PLG (alt 2)
2) New type with single ends - PLG (reg 2) should be listed by the color of hose
3) New type with single ends - LBG (alt 2) should be listed by the color of hose
4) New type with single ends - mixed (reg) this change was apparently intended to rectify the new type hoses being listed by end color instead of hose color. The error of pairing an LBG with a PLG ending persisted from previous inv changes. These newest additions are superfluous and should be deleted.
As to why some hoses are listed by the color of the fixture and others are listed by the color of the hose itself, I am sure there is a good reason for it, but I'd rather see this inventory fixed with the way things are now, and later if a measure is adopted to treat all hoses the same, appropriate changes to the inventories can be made at that time.
