I have these sets. Stop motion videos found online can also provide more confirmation.
Set 9468's 2453 (Undetermined Type) is 2453b (Solid Stud) (This set has 2453b
as the alternate to the undetermined type. Perhaps this was an error? I don't
quite understand there needing to be an undetermined type if there is a non-UDT
type in the set.)
Set 6860's 2453 (Undetermined Type) is 2453b (Solid Stud)
Set 3834's 2453 (Undetermined Type) is 2453a (Blocked Open Stud or Hollow
Stud)
Set 8971's 2453 (Undetermined Type) is 2453a (Blocked Open Stud or Hollow

In this case (and many similar ones) the undetermined entry is like a flag for
us to show that the set maybe or likely also came with the other variant in
sets from earlier production runs. It is a result of an improperly variant split:
- When the set was inventoried in 2012, there was the determined 2453b (Solid
Stud) entry and also still the original 2453 entry which didn't specify the
variant.
- 2453 was later marked for deletion and the proper 2453a variant was added (in
2017 in this case). So it is possible the original submitter of the inventory
interpreted 2453 as 2453a.
- Therefore we have to check such inventories individually and cannot just remove
the undetermined entry.
For set 9468 I think we can assume it never came with 2453a as that variant was
phased out in early 2012.
