I just meant that we shouldn't consider this a "release" fuck up, because it's not a new release. This is dishonest marketing. Which is WAY worse, to me.

It's neither. It's just pure misrepresentation of the product. They angled this to get people to insta-buy thinking it was a brand new 25th anniversary release, using the same language as they did in 2014 to suggest this was "new" and cut from the analog tapes (it isn't). They also have it listed as the same SKU as the 180g gatefold when that's not what they have, clearly, in inventory.
The underlined seems to be the case and has rung true for years.
