What is the difference between these two Technic half bushings? While randomly browsing some LEGO sites, I came across a weird (to me anyway) looking bushing. Its part 4265c. Below is one of the images describing it and the left one I recognize, but the right one I have never seen. It looks like there is some built-in play to the axis.

So my questions:


Are the two bushings on the image interchangeable?
Are they both really referred to by the same id (4265c)?
Is there any practical difference between the two?
Are there any specific use cases where the second would be preferred over the first one?
They both appear to have the same part ID despite being quite different.

  toothed half bush with a cutout
  
  The second variant, the toothed half bush with a cutout, is exactly
  what its name implies: a copy of the previous version with part of the
  axle hole cut out, which makes the axle hole large (see Figure 4-13). 
  
  This modification was introduced to make it easier for children to
  take half bushes on and off the axles, and that's exactly what makes
  it much less popular with builders: These bushes are more likely to
  shift when stressed than the first variant. 
  
  Other than that, it has every quality of the original toothed half
  bush except that, having been introduced a few years later, it's newer
  and thus made of strong material.
