Missing Kalashnikov rifle and light machine gun implications

BUR #15570 has been approved by @nonamethanks.

create implication type_56_assault_rifle -> assault_rifle
create implication type_56_assault_rifle -> kalashnikov_rifle

create implication rpd -> light_machine_gun
create implication m249 -> light_machine_gun
create implication imi_negev -> light_machine_gun
create implication bren_lmg -> light_machine_gun

Self-explanatory. All of them are AK variants, except the following LMGs. Post-WWII light machine guns fire intermediate cartridge, while earlier ones like the Bren LMG fires full-powered one.

I would also like to wonder why general tag BURs tend to be looked down by many active users here, including those who has more experience than me based on join date. Especially weapon and military equipment-related ones. I made this BUR because my previous one requesting Kalashnikov rifle to be aliased into only Kalashnikov in order to cover more non-rifle AK models like the Saiga-12 and PP-19 Bizon was rejected.
See, barely anyone would agree with this BUR. I bet this may take a very slow time into approval because I think it's not on moderation system's priority list. While other character or copyright related ones tend to be feaster, even less than few days.

I wonder if the reason is that talking about firearms on the internet due to local censorship by country. Having very few votes compared to other type of BURs! Please tell me if there are more or something's inaccurate here, either by DM or whatever. I will be happy upon getting your feedbacks and appreciate them. You might downvote if there are incorrect implications.

No, it's because this is a site for anime pictures and 99% of us don't care about tagging every single model of gun on the planet. See also forum #190816.

How unfortunate, despite the main purpose of tag is for searchability. And that's why I'm actually glad to help.

Please check the following BURs too:
