Default vise grip conspiracy theories?

My new vise grips from Lowe's part number says 95SG.

The included grips are part numbers 10CR and 5WR, even though both
have rubber grips which apparently is supposed to be the suffix
"WR".

Searching Yahoo for Irwin 95SG produces zero results.

Apparently the correct part number is 82SG as it is on Lowe's web
site.

That includes the same vise grips but apparently both use the suffix
"WR"

I guess they just forgot or didn't have time to change the stamped
part number on the big vise grip before packaging. Maybe they are
getting rid of those through Lowe's.

I'm not complaining.

More trivia. Not that it matters, but how come when Lowe's asks over
the PA system for help with customer assistance, they repeat the
request in Spanish?

They do that here, they might not do that where you live.
