No one's wrong, I believe. LC+ (or LC + 2.0, which also includes TMCC/Legacy control) can operate under any of Bluetooth, LionChief remote enclosed with loco purchase, or the LionChief universal remote, and traditional transformer operation. It's only the LionChief without the + that cannot operate by transformer, and can only operate via the remote enclosed with purchase, or the universal LionChief remote (and more recently Bluetooth). Perhaps a little confusing, but this is how the technology progressed. Lionel still offers LionChief in sets and separate sale that won't operate by transformer alone. But everything else (LC+, LC + 2.0) can operate by transformer.
