FIghter Level 5 Advanced Weapon Training?

[Outpost Omega 5]

I'm a bit confused, I thought the fighter class abilities listed under "Advanced Weapon Training" couldn't be taken until Level 9, yet it is a viable choice for my level 5 feat slot. The level 5 feat slot ANY character gets, not class specific bonus feat slots, though I apparently still need to by a fighter to select advanced weapon training. For my ACTUAL weapon training ability at level 5, it clearly states Level 9 as a requirement and won't let me take any of those choices.

I can find nothing in game or on the wiki the explains this. Is this a bug, or just failure to mention something somewhere?

Quoting a 2 years old thread from reddit, as owlcat fixes issue very fast - and cares a lot:

" It's a bug. Maybe it got introduced in the latest patch? I noticed and reported it just yesterday when planning my current MC.

Anyway, fighters get normal feats at odd levels and bonus combat feats at even levels. At level 5 they get Weapon Training, which lets them pick a weapon group. At 9, 13 and 17 they can pick an additional weapon group or an Advanced Weapon Training feat.

The bug lets them pick one of those weapon training feats as regular bonus combat feats every even level starting at 5, which is wrong. "

hmm... level 5 is right for the weapon training at 8, 13 and 17 it gets upgraded again, but its on top of the normal features, and selected from a narrow choice of options and shouldnt show up in the normal feat choices.

I'm still confused.

Is the intended effect (as opposed to what is actually happening) supposed to be that you select Advanced Weapon Training, but not Normal Weapon Training, as a FIGHTER bonus feat starting at level 6?
