Question about seats in a Stocker

In the spirit of Stock Eliminator,it is beyond me how rules like this changed over the years.

( I do believe you are definately reading the rulebook correctly,Jeff.)

Logic defies me as to how it would be illegal to use a lightweight seat that was designed for a race car,but it is legal to use lightweight (factory)seats out of a VW Rabbit in a 1970 442 Convertible?

I am more of a purest ,which is why I will never remove my factory bucket seats that were made by Oldsmobile (RIP).They are EXTREMELY heavy,but they did come in the car in 1970.(Stock)
