Well, it takes more than small details to bring 0.48 down to 0.30.
But maybe the 0.48 model did not take this in account:

The .48 model was actually questioned by another aeronautical engineer, "The underbody rear diffuser will never work so nice like in your simulation." Basically saying the .48 was giving the underside and rear exit the perfect possible design even though nobody knows how it will actually be.
