I answered that hours ago: "I don't know".

I'm not trying to provide the answers, because I don't have them. That's not avoiding the question, it's saying I don't know the answer.
I'm just pointing out that there are other, simpler explanations, which no-one seems prepared to consider as a possibility at all. Everyone (well, not everyone, just a few people) seems fixated with the idea that it must have been rebuilt as otherwise it's not 'correct'.
I don't think I have anything else to contribute to this thread. It's all purely speculative and only one alternative is being allowed.
