I was trying to keep the topic focused on the list updating to accurately reflect version set changes because it is easy to describe. When just refreshing the list resolved it I didn't bring it up for that scenario because the bar was low. As I noted in the original post, I'm fully aware that refreshing the list resolves the display, but refreshing the list is not always that simple, so I'll layer in another point that makes the "just refresh" not so simple. I presume there are other ways lists can be populated that behave in this same way, but I'll cite the one that is enough of a nuisance to get me to post about the issue, and that is the Show More->Similar Images (Shift-Ctrl-Alt-S).
There appears to be a general problem both with initial rendering and permanence with at a minimum lists created with this functionality.
Sorting doesn't appropriately apply (this list is nominally sorted alphabetically but what should be the first item falls at the end).

If you do anything that would change the list such as try to apply a new sort or
refresh it, the list is emptied entirely. The only way to "refresh" this list is to go back to the tab from which you opened it and re-issue the Similar Images command on the proper image.
The result of any attempt to refresh or sort a "Similar Images" list:

While that issue with the apparent loss of criteria underpinning such a list making it impossible to refresh at present is a separate issue, as noted, I'm citing it to note the context where the bar to refreshing is substantially higher than average and it would be nice if the version set functionality behaved as intended.
While I say they are separate issues, there is some possibility of a common cause for the strange sorting issue with the 'Similar Images" list and the version set display since both involve items at one end of a set being handled incorrectly
