First off, a bigger issue with this file is that it is a model, not a part. I
feel it goes beyond the idea of a shortcut, or complete assembly.
However, to your point. This file uses *3* unofficial files. Yes, they are
updates of already-official files, but they are still unofficial. I will
totally agree that -- in this specific case -- the unofficialness of the
sub-files doesn't affect the parent file. That's not a generally-true
statement. We sometimes update official files in ways that change the file
considerably. So I feel it's reasonable for the PT to handle this situation the
way it does.
