Default solvent weld bends

Hi,

Here's a daft question: I see Toolstation sells two types of solvent
weld bend.

A 90 degree bend:

and a 92.5 degree bend:

What's the difference and when do you use either type?

To answer my own question, the obvious difference is 2.5 degrees. I am
guessing that 92.5 degree gives a slight angle to the pipe to aid
drainage but in that case, what do you use the 90 degree bend for? Is
that for connecting a vertical pipe to a trap perhaps?

TIA
