PCC 4528776 (part 53989) is set as "Light Bluish Gray". However, LEGO's
database has it as Dark Stone Grey (Dark Bluish Gray). Is this an error? Or is
there some contradictory listing in an instruction manual?

Seems like it must be an error. Light Bluish Gray is not even listed as a known
color for this part.

True, not used in any sets. However... oddly there is a LEGO render of it on
the Color Images page?

I'm seeing it come in Very Light Bluish Gray, did someone mistake it for
Light Bluish Gray, and add an incorrect color code for it, perhaps?

Without commentary, I'm not sure what you're trying to state here. Explanation
please.

Sure,

Lego keeps track of parts being used in specific colors with Element IDs (Part
Color Codes). And sometimes update them with new numbers to float currently in-use
parts to the top of their filing system. Kinda like renaming an old Word document
to remind yourself that you're still working on it.

There used to be a naming convention for ID #s, but now (I think, 41XXXXX onwards)
they just go up in numerical order.

So,
Color - Element ID - Chronological Order (1,2,3...)

Further to this forum thread, I just checked Peeron and it does not list it as
coming in Very Light Bluish Gray, either.

My thoughts are that someone has incorrectly identified a color for this part,
and that changes need to be determined and made, as appropriate.

Cheers ...

It definitely comes in VLBG, since Thok (bio002) uses that.
