They do though, this has been fixed - the issue is with your interpretation of what constitutes consistency - the MIDI notes transmitted by the PADS are the same as those sequenced now, there was an issue (an oversight/bug) but the issue has been fixed and is consistent where it counts
MIDI Notes 0-11 sent on any channel will trigger the Tracks. MIDI Notes 12-60 will trigger the tracks on the respective channel across a 4 octave range centred around Note 36 - there is no fixed standard for how any manufacturer needs to refer to these Note numbers - so comparing what the AR says on its note page relative to product X is not what you need to focus on, if you midi monitor (or simply audition) the output from chromatic pads played manually and sequenced you should observe no discrepancy, if you do then there’s something amiss -but be sure to look at MIDI note numbers in teh right range
