I have looked into this with some help from a good friend, and it looks like
the mold has been updated and is functionally different. The bottom tube was
replaced with a stud holder and clutch power was increased on the bottom surfaces.

Therefore, the new version will need to get a new catalog entry.

Cheers,
Randy

Thanks for confirming this. We checked all sets released in 2021 and the inventories
are correct concerning
 
Part No: 18671 Name: Bracket 3 x 2 x 1 1/3
* 		18671 Bracket 3 x 2 x 1 1/3
Parts: Bracket
and
 
Part No: 73562 Name: Bracket 3 x 2 x 1 1/3 with Bottom Stud Holder
* 		73562 Bracket 3 x 2 x 1 1/3 with Bottom Stud Holder
Parts: Bracket

So until now the new variant has been found only in light bluish gray and only
in sets released last month.
