Europa-List: Rudder cable tension springs

Almost academic question re the rudder cable tension springs.

The manual p.22-6 says to hook one end of the spring to an FL10 spacer bolted
through the firewall at the front, but the other end to an OR9 spacer bolted
to the CS21 (attached to the rudder pedals).

The FL9 is a smaller spacer than the FL10 and the spring is kinda tight in
the smaller gap; a good fit in the FL10 though.

I asked Andy and he couldn't actually remember why different spacers were
specified at the time the manual was written - maybe tight fit with the engine
mount, but he couldn't be sure... we agreed it was best to just "build it
as written & not worry" ... but I do!! (only intellectually...)

Any clever ideas why the difference, please?
