They have to keep the part numbers the same, otherwise they would have to put a recall on the service manuals. It avoids nasty confusion when ordering parts. If a part number is changed after the service manual is published, a mechanic would have to keep up with part number changes and that's really messy so they keep the part numbers the same. They only have to worry about revision.
