That would mean the option can not be checked, and may not even be there to be checked. This is more normal than some would want to believe.
A few decades ago, the Preliminary Order (yes that is what they called the form, whether filled out before the start of production or at the end, same name) was two pages with a carbon paper in between (yes, I am old enough to call the hills brother) and all the options (with their 3 character RPOs, some things never change) were in columns and the dealer's salesperson would check mark each option as the customer desired. Today all that appears on a computer screen (monitor for the technical minded) but the salesperson now clicks a check mark for each option ordered. I did get a print out of one when I ordered my Camaro but have lost two of the four pages but overall it does electronically what used to be done by hand. This is part of the Order Work Bench program.
Of course none of this is pertinent but when the question about how "late availability" came up I could not help remember how Chevy used to do it.
To close, there is a difference between an option that is constrained and a option that is not available and you are experiencing the difference. These are the quirks that make following the process interesting for me. May not help you but I do enjoy the exceptions probably more than I should.
