LW/RWs have always been considered forwards...

It's fooled a few people.
No, I believe all wing positions count as forwards/attackers.

Nope.
Convert to LM/RM and it will work at least on a formation that has a LM/RM. I can't say if it will work if the position on the formation is a LW/RW
Historically, players starting positions don't determine their positions for objectives. From your description, if you convert vardy to a cam he would count towards the objectives if he scored. I don't believe this is correct.
I'm starting in a false 9 with perisic and gnabry on the wings and Brandt at cf. That way I have 6 mids to try and score and assist
I have literally done this (LW>LM conversion) and literally gotten progress on the objective. Haven't tried converting a striker though.
Maybe the criteria is different this year, which I would like. Can I ask who was the LW u converted to LM?
@Matt_Cornwall
OTW Pulisic, started in a 451 after converting to LM
Also, proof that he is packed as a LW not LM
And proof that it counted

LW RW CF and ST are attackers. In formation the LW and RW are in line with the ST or CF.
For some objectives you must use players that are LW or RW when come out of pack. Otherwise it won't work. Those LW or RW can be converted to LM or RM and it will still work. If one makes CR7 a CDM, he is still considered as a Forward. It doesn't work the other way around

What is sooo hard to understand? If their original position had M at end then they are in fact considered midfield.

Position changing them probably wont work, it'll be based on what the player comes out of packs as.
