5200 switch box variants

One has both 75 and 300 ohms input from antenna, and other has only 75 ohms input. The front plate was designed a bit different to remove the opening for the absent screws terminals, and different colored label. As far as I can tell, internally a 75-300 ohms baulin and 2 screws posts are the only thing missing.

 

Any reason for 2 different designs? Maybe to save 10 cents per switch box when Atari removed the 300 ohms input?
