It wouldn't surprise me if Warp did this on purpose, so people with the
originals don't feel cheated, and the represses stand out as actually
represses.
It also wouldn't surprise me if they went with different printers and
didn't care as much about the represses. They're mostly for AE fans
anyway, as the casual listener will buy the CD that's still widely available.
