SKU is stock keeping unit. So not really about variant pf a product but every unique sellable items should have it’s own SKU so you don’t accidentally sell 5 of things with one color while only have 3 in stock.
Yes it is a variant but also it’s more general than that. If you sold the same item with a different number of pcs in a pack (even if just a plastic packing), it also gets SKU. In general you can’t break SKU into smaller units without making a different SKU.
So if you sell socks in 1, 3, and 5 pairs, all get their own SKU even if every pair of socks in the bundle are the same kind. That means if someone wants to order 1 pcs but you only have SKU for 3 in your system, they can’t. Even if the item is there physically. Not unless you remove the SKU of the 3 bundle and add 3 of the 1 (which requires the buyer to communicate it and the seller to jump a bunch of hoops on their system)
Mhhh. Aight.
From my viewpoint I already denomintaed it out as a single unit under the awareness of every other change becoming a new SKU.
But others might not know. So at least they’ll know now (thumbs up)

That…sounds like a variant?
