Stock had 7 combinations get a reduction. 3 of those combos had an NHRA hp rating higher than the OEM rating:
1977 Malibu: OEM = 160-170, Old = 275, New = 271
1969 Roadrunner: OEM = 390, Old = 400, New = 395
1986 T'bird OEM = 150, Old = 200, New = 197
How were these eligible for a reduction?

I was wondering that too, but I have given up on equal enforcement of the rules or even simple enforcement of the rules as written.
