So the answer to the question that has been a mystery to me for so long
(see my other post) is that the connector pin numbering came from a BSI
committee whilst the LJU terminal numbering was determined by BT, and
the two didn't talk to each other.

Whether they didn't communicate or (as I suspect) someone omitted to
check the draft specifications in detail I have no idea. Apparently
it wasn't noticed for some time.

(I.e. it was a cock-up.)

It was certainly that.
