I get this thread now. It’s more of a rant as opposed to a poll. I approached it from the wrong angle
Scale accessories are primarily for appearance. You don’t see guys filling up these rigs with those little jerry cans. The traction boards are useless because these rigs don’t need them, too capable and light. You won’t see a guy pull out the tiny little axe and clear a trail with it...I could keep going but you get the point. The definition you shared covers these items comprehensively I think.
Class 1 requires bumpers, what would be their function besides appearance.? For scale looks.
You kind of answer your own question...anyways back to my coffee

Exactly but a Jerry can or axe are nonfunctional points and a sand ladder or tow strap are functional, two different categories but both are scale. They are made to look like a real item.
Bumpers are in their own category, class 2 also requires bumpers but they don't have to be as wide. But they look like bumpers on a real vehicle, they are scale. Even a scale looking engine can gets point. It looks real but serves not purpose.
Everything on the worksheet for scale points looks something real excerpt a servo used as a winch.
