Type 2 hasn’t been seen in a set since 2016.
And it’s only in one set from 2016 where Type 3 is an alternate.
So I would rule out finding Type 2 on PaB. That’ll be Type 3.

Should they be variants?

They already are (with Type 1):

no longer being sold and I've got to scrounge up the parts on Bricklink,

Well, yes, you would have to scrounge up the parts somewhere else besides PaB.
BrickLink is one of those choices. PaB is always going to be modern, in-production
parts.

this part had such a short production run:

There are plenty of parts that only last 2-3 years before they are no longer
made ever again. Heck, some parts are only made for one set and never used again.
Marketing 101: Keep your inventory fresh so that it constantly generates interest.
So, not only new sets all the time, but also new parts and new colors.
