On the other hand the touchup kit for my red Honda VFR has a true base coat (which is white), a pigment coat (red), and clear coat.

It's possible that what you're calling a top coat has a separate function, because of what color your car is. It might be to increase the "depth" of the black base.
Interesting. Though, I thought it was odd that I could only find a base coat and clear coat when searching online for my color.
