I don't believe this is anything new. For as long as I can remember, each year most issues of the USCA pamphlets had the new laws codified, but the last few issues, which came out shortly before the new pocket parts were issued, would only include the laws uncodified. I admit that this is something of a nuisance, but the problem is short-lived (e.g. until the pocket parts are issued).

Hi All,
I used the USCA pamphlets today to update a pocket part to 40 USCA sect. 481
and discovered a big change. If you look at pamphlets #1-4, they are arranged
by title and then code section number as they have been for years and years.
Starting with pamphlets 5 & 5A, the booklets are arranged by public law number.
The covers of the pamphlets tell you in small print at the bottom that "[t]his
pamphlet sets out Public Law sections affecting U.S.C.A. but not codified in
U.S.C.A. title and section format." It does NOT tell the user that there is a
table starting on p.[99] that will direct the user from their code section to
the applicable public law, if any (thank you, Amy Hale Janeke, for finding it!).
Shame on you, West. You should alert us to *substantial* changes like this.
