The trigger bit frequencies are similar, but slightly different.
Same goes for the filter bit frequency. This implies a change in the trigger, filter, or calibrations, but the release notes do not indicate any changes in any of these.
After a wuick quick consult with Leon, possibilities are that something is missed by the release notes, the particle counts are the same with different energies, I am missing the implications of something in the release notes, or there is some unexplained randomness in the detector sim (the G4 tags are the same for both versions).
