I am requesting that these two categories be changed or removed:

Miscellaneous
Miscellaneous Licensed

These are not categories and the items within them are uncategorized. I know
there is only one item in each category right now, but this is how things start
going wrong. Things start small and then you end up with 700 uncategorized items
that someone must sort through down the road (speaking from experience).

Everything can be categorized and that is the purpose of having a catalog.

For this set, I suggest a category of Ikea:

 
Set No: 40357 Name: BYGGLEK
* 		40357-1 (Inv) BYGGLEK
201 Parts, 2020
Sets: IKEA

For this set, Dorling Kindersley would be appropriate because there probably
are and will be more otherwise-unclassifiable sets like it:

 
Set No: 11959 Name: Parts for Build Your Own LEGO Escape Room (Book b22other03) polybag
* 		11959-1 (Inv) Parts for Build Your Own LEGO Escape Room (Book b22other03) polybag
49 Parts, 2022
Sets: Universal Building Set: Basic Model

Fortunately, a simple fix here would be to change the titles of the categories
these sets are already in. Thank you.
