Wrong chord names in notation reference |

Hello,
I noticed that a few chord names of the chord name chart in the notation
reference (chapter A.1) are incorrect.
These definitions are apparently derived from "Klaus Ignatzek: Die Jazzmethode
für Klavier 1. Schott, 1995". I have this book in front of me and some chord
names are not correct. Please compare the chord names there on page 18.
1) For example "c - e - g - d" is called "C add9" and not "C 9". Only if the 7
is included, you call it "C 7/9" or "C 9".
2) The same applies here: "c - e flat - g - f". The correct notation would be
"Cm add11" or "Cm add4". "Cm 11" would be: "c - e flat - g - b flat - d - f"
with 7 and 9.
3) "C lyd" and "C maj7 #11" mean the same thing, by the way. "c - e - g - b - f
sharp" is appropriately called "Cmaj7 add#11".
I know that there are different spellings for many chord symbols, but these
mentioned points have actually been adopted incorrectly. I am not aware of any
literature that justifies previous spellings.
It would be great if these bugs were fixed soon.
Many greetings
