Clearly a mistake was made in this inventory. Based on the change log these were
originally added as alternates for the dark bluish gray 4070 but at some point
both became regulars. That is obviously not correct so we either have to delete
these or change them back to alternates.

I had some more time to look at exactly what happened here. Back in those days
4070a was still a separate variant, so I thought it might have accidentally been
added as a variant in the wrong color. But a light bluish gray 4070a was added
to the inventory as alternate when there was a dark bluish gray 4070a in the
inventory. So it seems that the light bluish gray parts must have really been
in some sets.

But when 4070a was removed from inventory some mistakes were made and both colors
ended up becoming regular items in the inventory. The light bluish gray 4070
should be changed back to alternate. That means that I will reject this request
and submit a new one to chnage them to alternates.
