This item is main inventory as it is illustrated in the instruction manual as a needed piece. I almost missed it because its not in the main inventory section.

The set instructions in your possession come from the later version of the set
and the parts included in that set version are shown in the Alternate Items section
with an informative inventory note. The inventory is correct as it exists now
and therefore your request to change it could not be approved.

I appreciate the time taken to inform the requesters why their submissions are
rejected. This is very helpfully, especially for many new submitters -- many
of whom in the past were previously clueless as to why their requests were rejected
without any sort of explanation whatsoever (and many times probably caused them
to be discouraged to submit anything ever again).

This is why the presentation of inventories should be redesigned.
Understandable that this may not be technically easy but it should not be very
hard neither.
