Over the years the Lathe Chisels were generally sold separately from the
Mark 5/V or as part of an accessory package to complement the
Mark 5/V tool.
Should that now be Mark 5/V/5?

Slightly breaking the roman numeral protocol; VX = 10 - 5 = 5.

I prefer to think of it as “gently bending” the protocol.

How about from Roman times VX = X-V = V.

I hate it when my protocol gets bent. The swelling is sooo painful!
