What's the point of a US made muzzle nut?

The ATF says a muzzle nut is a not a muzzle device, simply a thread protector,so it doesn't matter if it is US made or not.

So why would K-var go to the trouble to make one?

Can anyone confirm this? So if I had a miiled rifle with a us trigger group a us gas piston then that would be all I need seing the muzzle not is not a muzzle device?

I think the countable part is referred to as a "muzzle attachment".  So if this verbiage is correct then either a muzzle nut or brake would count.

I think I saw a letter posted somewhere from the ATF clarifying that a muzzle nut was a thread protector and not an attachment.

Well apparently we need clarification on this one.

FWIW, K-VAR made these back in the day to be permanently installed. Hence the hole for installing a spring pin.
