I can't discover anything panel-ish about this part. I'd say it's
window, door, technic, other, vehicle, or pretty much anything except a panel...
 What do you think it should be?

Also, it doesn't make much sense to call this part a cylinder:
When its own counterpart that fits into it is a Slope:
How about putting them both in Vehicle, Cylinder, or Aircraft?

This actually makes a bit more sense, since Part (45411)'s original
counterpart is Part (45410), which is also classified as a Curved Slope. Both
Parts (45411) and (45410) could also be reclassified as Cylinders, though. 😐

Ok, yes, I can see why those should stick together.
Random idea: Changing Vehicle Base into Vehicle Base & Roof. Move all these parts
there, together with those car roofs that are currently in wedge but aren't
really that wedgy

Well:
1. Window (or door) frame implies you could put a glass or panel (or door)
inside. That seems very unlikely with the technic holes in the way.
2. It’s been used in System (City) sets for now BUT it sure looks like a Technic
Brick, yet not really.
So Technic could do but not really “Technic Brick” and there are no similar parts
(that I know of) in the other Technic categories, that would mean it should fall
in the general “Technic” category, which is already overpopulated.
I’m not envying the catmins

Yep certainly a tough one. It's very clear what it is: A hatch. But how to
catalog it in the existing categories?
I'm voting Door Frame. Alternatively, Vehicle. It may be used in space bases,
but the whole point of hatches is that things are built up from compartments
that have been vehicles at some point.
Hmm, anyone remember the days when we had a "Space" category?

Funny this one - Lego put it into their Bricks, Special category where most of
the modified bricks go. It does look a bit technic Panel, though.

Really do wish we could edit messages. Forgot to say technic bricks are also
in the Bricks, special Lego category - so technic panel could be the right answer????

Since

At least it has something in common with

I don’t quite follow the logic here
Half an arch might be a slope but, surely, an arch + an inverted arch is not
a slope, it’s a cylinder!

Okay but then it should be a Slope AND a Slope Inverted. And both Double. So
does that make it Quadruple or Double-Double?
We really need a catmin who is used to deep and rigorous classifications.
I don’t know, maybe an entomologist or something like that?

So it's a door/window/panel/technic/vehicle/slope/arch/brick modified/cylinder..
I think this part just broke the catalog

Brickowl has it as: Parts/Uncategorized
So they don't know where to put it either.

We used to have the one category it would fit in perfectly - Other.

What about a new category: “Technic, Brick, Modified”?
This would include Parts (49699) and (30528), along with (2991), (2991b), (2989),
(85943), (18975), (92715), and (61185c01).

Actually, Part (61185c01) should be moved to “Projectile Launcher”: https://www.bricklink.com/catalogList.asp?searchMethod=searchBoth&q=&itemBrand=1000&catType=&itemYear=&catID=992&catLike=W

We actually have that in our organization method. All the technic bricks that
say "brick modified" along with the ones you've shown here. That would make
sense to break into a new category on BL.
