2018 Panasonic OLED Model Numbers. Bait and Switch?

Now that Panasonic's OLED sets have arrived I am interested to note that the model they are calling the FZ950 here is akin to the FZ800 model being offered overseas.

Overseas, the FZ950 has a premium finish and a soundbar (same as last year's EZ1000) and the FZ800 has a more budget finish (like last year's EZ950). While the panels and processing appears to be identical between the 950 and 800 what reason could Panasonic have for not using the same model numbering in NZ (and Australia) as they do in the rest of the world?

If it's to meet a price point by not including the soundbar, then surely it is an FZ800?

As someone that checks out overseas reviews for help in choosing a set, this is almost like a 'bait and switch' deal.
