Shock! According to the EU driving licence, can only drive automatic?

Hello community, sorry, for the thriving title, but it’s cooking with me. Earlier I compared the driving licences with my wife, my wife made her 1986, I mean 1985. Both we no longer got the gray rag (my wife the pink one), but the send EU driving license in check card format, which we got out of fun a few years ago. Then we looked on the Internet what these numbers mean behind the numbers on the back. And there comes the shock in the game: behind the No. 12 is “78”, and that means that the candidate is only allowed to drive automatic! To explain: I actually made the driver’s license on automatic. At that time it was explicitly (!), the test does not have to be on a switchcar, you can still drive both. In the old, gray driver’s license there is also NO restriction in the sense “only automatic”, there is nothing to it, fortunately I still have it. I still know that as my brother 1986 s I would rather not say what I have driven in recent years. What do I do? Complain about the road traffic office and “mistakes from the office”? I don’t want to fall into the house with the door if I don’t have a right instead. I don’t want to go into the house with the driver’s license.
