Is it possible that the customer or end use doesn't need that stingent of lead requirments?  I have had class 3 where the customer waived the requirements for devices like this because the class was mainly chosen for placement, cleanliness, and solder but lead length wasn't an issue.  It also costed more to have them trimemd then to leave them alone so the custoemr wanted to save some money.
