Not sure, since we haven't used NFHS mechanics in a few years, and thus I don't have NFHS manuals. I'm really not that concerned with the differences, but rather, with the "herky jerky" evolution of the IAABO mechanics.

For example, I just discovered that tapping one's chest is the "official" IAABO signal that one has the coverage on the last shot. It's not on the "official" signal chart. It was never announced as a change. Yes, I know that some may have already used this as some type of "unofficial", or "when in Rome", type signal, but if IAABO wanted it to be "official" then why not put it on the chart, and announce it as a new mechanic, or a change?
