It's possible that it's all just to boost sales of new models. However, it does seem to echo what I've been seeing from other companies. I reached out to Perrin a while ago about their catbacks for the 2nd gen and they confirmed fitment only for their 3 inch catback. They also told me a new 2.5 inch version for the 2nd gen is in development.
FWIW, I've been looking closely at the HKS Spec L2, and the 2nd gen version also has a slightly wider diameter compared to the one for the 1st gen by a few mm. I don't really know how much of a difference these small changes make (if any), but just something for people to consider if they want to. I'm sure most of the older models will work completely fine.
