PNNL latest Commercial models don't align with the ASHRAE 90.1-2019 code

I observed that the latest commercial prototypical buildings don't align with code ASHRAE 90.1-2019. (specially exterior walls). I tried to compare it with the older models which I had downloaded in 2023. I see that the latest medium office building has been assigned with three different wall U values which wasn't the case in older models. Has anyone faced this issue? What is the reason behind this change?
