It's a weird change. I did not see how this could save much production cost. Putting this pin there also took effort. They used cast steel, that could save cost in pre-CNC era.

That's cause you don't make "stuff"; the work/cost savings is in the interior grip shaping that was eliminated, and overall simplification of the grip and its fitting to the frame
