Why are axle bearings different?

[Scott Machalk <smachalk@domain.elided>]

One more thing.

When we were doing the axle bearings, the bearings were different between
left and right. One side has the non-tempered sleeve that you can cut off
with a chisel. The other has a hardened sleeve that has to be pressed off. 

I thought that maybe the DPO had replaced one side at one time or another
but, lo and behold, the new ones came the same way.

What gives?
