@kerryrobinson do you know of a current use cases for this issue?

@topowright I don't have a solid use case from a customer, but I could see the case where you need to display a symbol given an SIDC from a legacy standard however prefer to visualize the updated symbol using the latest version of the standard, or give the end user the option to choose depending on their need. This would be based on the assumption that the change made to the symbol from the legacy version to the current version was made based either to meet a usability need or is just a more modern way to symbolize an object.

Another potential workflow would be if you are integrating feeds (or data/overlays) from multiple systems into one view... one feed is from a system using the current version of the standard & another feed is using a legacy version of the standard. I would expect the operator would prefer to see the C4ISR objects symbolized in a standard way.
