I ve looked at table D1.A.3, does this imply that w17x17 versus w17x17_OFA are using the same spec?

I've looked at NUREG/CR-0200, figure D1.A.4, the SAS2H input used for PWR 17x17 cross section is using a different spec. For example

Fuel-pin cell geometry is as follows:

Rod Pitch 1.25984 cm

Pellet Diameter 0.81915 cm

clad outer diameter 0.94966 cm

The main reason for this question is because I have a different W17x17 spec as compared to table D1.A.3. This may also imply that I need to generate cross section libraries for my analysis.
