No, I missed something. 
I had been reading about a build thread on a 2001 kit and forgot that this thread is the 1969 kit. In addition, the 2157 and Centuri kits used a full tube with paper transition, so my brain was stuck there.
However, since the 1969 kit is an evolution of the 2157, I'm sure the LEM tube name is just an artifact from the old kit.
