Exactly my point, I don't know, it was an unannounced change.

Maybe it came to the mechanics editor in a dream?
It happens.
Friedrich Kekulé discovered that the structure of benzene contained a ring of six carbon atoms with alternating single and double bonds after having a dream about a snake biting its own tail.
