I'd like to chime in on this but from another perspective: non-consistency when
using the tilde. The synthesized hose parts 755 and 756 have the tilde, but the
hose end parts 750 and 752 do not. Apply this logic to the minifig chain and
the link part 209 should have the tilde, but the end part 208 should not.
It would be key for a user-friendly usage when working with LSynth that "208.dat
- Minifig Chain Link End (Open File for Usage Guide)" gets "unhidden" in the
parts library.
