Hello!
I recently asked if the Minecraft Illager - Black Legs, Neck Bracket & Tile With
Clip (min079) could be changed to a Pillager in the item name, but it got rejected.
I think the Inventories Admin overlooked the fact that the printing identifies
it as a Pillager, and not a Illager. In fact, min079 would probably be under
the same minifigure listing as the regular pillager, min081, except for the fact
that min079 has a neck bracket. I can understand the confusion, since it came
from the supposed "Illager Raid" set that actually only has one Illager. Please
see attached images.

I think this should be changed, although maybe I'm a little to diligent over
such a small detail.

Thank you!

Both of the minifigures
 
Minifig No: min078  Name: Illager (Vindicator)
* 
min078 (Inv) Illager (Vindicator)
Minifigures: Minecraft
and
 
Minifig No: min079  Name: Illager (Pillager) - Dark Bluish Gray Neck Bracket and Tile with Clip
* 
min079 (Inv) Illager (Pillager) - Dark Bluish Gray Neck Bracket and Tile with Clip
Minifigures: Minecraft
are referred to as an "Illager" on the set box
 
Original Box No: 21160  Name: The Illager Raid
* 
21160-1 The Illager Raid
Original Boxes: Minecraft
that these minifigures come in.

The official description for the above set also contains the following wording:

"Kids will love the new-for-January-2020 Illagers and their big, biting Ravager,
which the Illagers can ride. These bad guys bring conflict and action to the
game, and any other LEGO® Minecraft™ set."

Because not every LEGO fan is a Minecraft fan, the naming of the minifigures
comes directly from how LEGO refers to them.

However, since
 
Minifig No: min079  Name: Illager (Pillager) - Dark Bluish Gray Neck Bracket and Tile with Clip
* 
min079 (Inv) Illager (Pillager) - Dark Bluish Gray Neck Bracket and Tile with Clip
Minifigures: Minecraft
is the same minifigure as
 
Minifig No: min081  Name: Illager (Pillager)
* 
min081 (Inv) Illager (Pillager)
Minifigures: Minecraft
except for the neck bracket, as you have stated, I have added the additional
descriptor "Pillager" to min079.

Cheers,
Randy
