So you spend $300-500 for an original Aurora Sealab, and it gives you exactly ONE of these pieces:
And you realize you need EIGHT of them to do all the docking ring walkways (port, starboard, upper, lower: X2 each)
Did you know there's another one, hiding in plain sight, in the very same box?
It's this fella right here:
EXACT same length and width, on the square part, and EXACT same hole location, as seen by this superimposition:
So then you just chop, chop, chop:
And then you lay styrene square strip down in the right place, and viola, you can't tell the difference:
And boom, just like that, you've cut your Sealab costs in half if you're building in "all-original" Falcon...
Now I know what you're thinking: "What about the little pin holes?"
