You should look at working range of appliance, not absolute numbers. 7.1 and 7.5 easily could be a huge, hardly tolerable gap.

The values listed are typical values with no error bars given. Unless one goes to a lot of trouble in tribology, no conclusions are cogently drawn from such data.

Conformance to JWS-3309 probably ensures those values don't go way off, but still: if the specs are different there's either a typo in one spec or the fluids are different.
