The only thing about this one is that I do not have the time to look through
all 555 sets that use 10247 to see if it ever "officially" mattered.
However, the question I keep coming back to is why redesign the part in the first
place if not to use that additional functionality? And I believe the answer is
somewhere in those 555 sets.
So in theory, if we can find 1 set that has a 1x2 jumper under the modern base
of 1 it should then mean it cant be merged if I'm understanding correctly?
but then even if we dont find it and then a year later lego does do that it would
be something that has to be split again if I understand correctly?

Yes, again. This is one of the main reasons losing information that is already
here is not a good plan.

mhm. a functional difference like this is not a good idea to merge. I just tested
it out, out of curiosity with the parts on hand and it truly has no grip. it
just falls off as there was no stud. Thankyou for clarifying
