To recreate:

1. Create a new bibliographic record in the basic editor.
2. Edit the 000 Leader position 6 and select o for Kit.
3. Look at the 008 and see it defaults to VM or visual materials.

According to Library of Congress a record type of Kit is "a mixture of various
components issued as a unit for instructional purposes." It seems that the 008
should then default to Mixed materials. It is a little confusing because there
is a record type for mixed materials which is similar but NOT for instructional
purposes. Regardless, a kit should not default to visual materials in the 008,
because that is not a correct type of material. It is not possible to select
Kit in the leader and then select Mixed materials in the 008. The system will
not allow the two to exist together.
