Kits or Replicas also will not have 17 digits so they are not rated as originals.

There is no "incorrect" terminology used to lower a rate.

This doesn't make sense. What does 17 digits have to do with anything.

If you have a Focus the insurance company can find all the info on the car.
If you have a component car with 17 digits in the VIN # the insurance can find no info on the car.
so you are telling us that they only look at the the 17 digits and don't check the VIN# for ABS, Side inpact bars and air bags for a better rate?
