Conversion-kit-ness now lives on the ModelRelationship conversion_kit edge, so the conversion-kit tag duplicates it and is being retired.

- variant_of
- reverted by Flipcommons Catalog : Retract the erroneous variant_of on the Cactus Canyon Lyman Upgrade. variant_of is reserved for cosmetic/packaging variants that share a machine's gameplay. The Lyman Sheats Complete Upgrade changes gameplay — a larger rule set and an added mechanism — so it is a conversion kit, not a variant, and the model already carries a conversion_kit model_relationship to the Special Edition. Chicago Gaming's own page for the upgrade (https://www.chicago-gaming.com/coinop/cactus-canyon/upgrade) describes it this way: "While deep into the project, Lyman envisioned a larger rule set and an additional mechanism that he felt would propel Cactus Canyon to true pinball greatness." (No cite: here — a retraction deactivates a claim rather than asserting one, so there is no asserted field for a citation to attach to; the source is recorded in this note instead.)
