Component

backpack plugin

Problem

Unfortunately, that convention came from App Inventor and I have never personally been a fan of it. Having the number of blocks in the backpack listed in the menu option is just noise as it has nothing to do with the blocks to which the menu is actually attached. The backpack plugin took this bad design decision from App Inventor. If we have our choice between showing two numbers in this plugin the appropriate number to show would be the number of workable blocks since that's how much the backpack will grow by (which is what is implemented here).

Request

The request is to remove the count of blocks already in the backpack from the copy to backpack message as it doesn't seem relevant.
