My point was that it is not likely that the makers paid high dollar for the fine mold making that you refer to (they are not producing these for rocket sceintists). I don't think the inventer went to the casting maker and told him "After years of shaving and adding thousandths of an inch here and there, I have finally made the perfect jig. Now I need you to reproduce it exactly to within 1/10,000 of an inch". On the contrary, I would bet that they were generally happy with the way there jig shape swam, and wanted to get it to market. On closer examination of the same jigs, you can see differences between the 2 Lite 6Xs (jigs #3 and #5). The holes on either end of the one on the left are larger than the one on the right. There is also a difference in the Ss on either end of "SALAS".
