I believe it has already been established that the car is a CB&Q prototype.  My comparison comments were in regard only to the NH prototype, which had the 4-0 / 0-4 window arrangements.  I am unfamiliar with the  configuration of the GN prototype.

If it was the other side of the car, the catcher would be at the other end, right?

And you've just pointed out the problem with MOLDED IN mail hooks.  And if they were so bent on molding in the mail hook, then where's the safety bar across the other door?  I mean, I'm glad I won't have to carve off two things per side, but the logic is just fail.

There is one thing I want to know. This car apparently has a new style truck.
Is it going to have low pros or pizza cutters? If it's going to have pizza cutters
then what would be a good wheel to replace them with? Supposedly they are
36" wheels.

Fox Valley makes 36" wheels.  Maybe these new MT wheels will be a new in-between flange. In-between lo-pros and pizza cutters.

I'm pretty sure Shipsure said the flanges will not be useful for slicing pizza.
