I will be interested in seeing what Mr. Butler and other say on this issue

Sorry, but I don't see what the big deal is concerning this issue.

It was made quite clear when the new testing procedure was set in place that everything started from scratch and that no, NO bat was preapproved. That means that ANY prior lists are null and void.

The new lists (2004) is just telling us which bats passed the new standard test. From the confusion shown in this thread, it is obvious that it was necessary to distinguish that the EST5 (and others) is a legal bat whether it had the recertification mark or not. And that is just what they did.
