related to Omen of Whittling

If PoE2 game design decision is to make the most useful information in game, then make a database for displaying Item Level TEIR of the affix requirement . Omen of Whittling can be deceiving the way everything is display currently. Raxxanterax made a video, "How I Ruined My Best Item In POE2" about this item. Basically he and I had assumed lower level modifier is the lowest tier on the item which is not the case

I thought Whittling shows in orange the mod that will be replaced, no?
