| Today we received this update of items that were moved to another category:
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=2599
I strongly object to the movement of below parts to the Arch category.
and
The definition of an arch according to the Oxford dictionary is:
a curved symmetrical structure spanning an opening and typically supporting
the weight of a bridge, roof, or wall above it.
Neither of those parts fulfil that description. They do not span an opening.
They maybe help to raise an adjoining element.
This becomes more obvious if you look at the 39 parts that are now categorized
as Arch.
There are exactly two parts that don't look like any other part in this category,
the other 37 parts do.
See picture below or this link: https://www.bricklink.com/catalogList.asp?catType=P&catString=6
I strongly suggest to undo the movement since it is not at all logical, not following
the definition of an arch and certainly doesn't a help a user to search for
an item like 4190 or 73682.
My suggestion is to move these items to Plate, Modified or Tile, Modified.

| It's true that those 2 parts are the least similar to the other parts in
the arch category, but I think they fit there much better than they would in
the Plate, Modified or Tile, Modified categories.
