Please allow both 想 and 要 or at least keep it consistent

They did not provided vocabulary in the tips, characters '订位' mean 'book a table, reserve a seat'. If you used the hover over clue it was provided.

要 can also mean: to ask for, may. In previous tips '要 + verb' meant wanting to do something. I do not recall tips for 想. Duolingo please provide tips on the usage of 想.
