The torque spec, size of the flanges, thread pitch, etc are the same between the two and so they will provide the exact same clamping load.
Like I said, the Whiteline aftermarket bolt will not fit properly in the upper hole. Those are generic instructions for strut cars that use a regular bolt without a cam or enlarged shank or anything like that. On these cars, if you use the whiteline bolts, they have to go in the lower hole.

When you're referring to upper and lower positions, are you referring to where the "strut mounting points" are in the photo?
