Given problem is you argue with pictures showing what is under the cap.
On the tag page picture - and on the ground - we can't say what is under
and if a man can't get down a ladder into a room.
I think all this stuff would require a formal proposal to discuss about
vocabulary and have opinions of several people.
We need standard definitions more than legal actually.
All the best

can we change the picture or put both on the same page with the legal
industry names.

I have to argue with the Lexico definition of a manhole. I worked in
the highway construction industry in the United States for 14 years, and
in the industry the word "manhole" refers to the entire underground
chamber that sewers are connected to. We referred to the access on the
top as a "manhole cover."
