My only question is why isn't the die chip under the "U" and next to the "S" in TRUST which are KEY indicators for the VAM 100


Because they aren't "key" indicators. Even VAMworld calls them "Additional pick-up points." That's because they aren't unique to that VAM, and would only serve to confuse attributors if they were advertised as the "key" p'ups.

One of the reasons that every little detail of a known VAM isn't published is because the deluge of information would make it harder, not easier, to attribute them. Many features are shared between VAMs - hub doubling, for instance, would be repeated on all dies coming from that hub and as a result a number of VAMs would have that same doubling.
