Why did Eibach flip the rake on US/EMEA springs?

I noticed that Eibach's US 530e springs have a forward rake, and the UK/EMEA 530e springs have a reverse rake. They do have different part # but I didn't understand why they were designed so differently.

US Eibach - 25mm Front (1.0 Inch) / 30mm Rear (1.2 Inch) (Part E10-20-038-01-22)

UK Eibach - 30mm Front (1.2 Inch)/ 25mm Rear (25mm) (Part E10-20-038-08-22)

I asked Eibach US support and they said to ask EMEA what they think. I asked EMEA support and they only said it was a different part, but didn't explain why they changed the rake for the US markets.

I suspect it's an error (since it appears to flips the Front/Rear measurement) rather than a different rake, but wasn't able to get an answer.
