I'm still on the fence, but watching with great interest to see where we land on this.

My only contribution at this time would be that the options do add, combine, and supersede each other, particularly for pricing, packaging and window sticker reporting, like what Mr 70 suggested.

Just like if a customer placed an order for the 1969 COPO Camaro package 9560,they automatically received the motor option ZL-1 right at the factory,and not the L-78.(although the car received the L-78 ornamental treatment for obvious reasons)
In my world, a guy might want RPO B85 bright body side molding and order that, but it gets comped up into a YG3 Deluxe Molding Exterior package which includes B80 roof drip moldings, B96 wheel opening moldings, V22 uplevel grille and the desired B85 side trim. The YG3 appearance package would be what appears on the invoice and the window sticker.

I think that's your answer. It doesn't mean the other options don't exist or get used, or that they are not named correctly; they are just buried in the packaging.
