Different versions of Kailh Mini Choc switch?

I've bought Dareu EK820 keyboard that has Kailh Choc red switches and was a little bit surprised when I discovered that switch I've bought some time ago, when I was testing different ones, was actually different. Check out the photo - there's clear difference in the holes for the keycap. The right one is from the keyboard.
Why is that? Are there different version of those switches? Like maybe some older/newer thing? Or is there something else?
As a result keycaps from this keyboard doesn't fit with the single one.

Interesting. I know there is Kailh Choc (PG1350 and then there is Kailh Choco Mini (PG1232 which is smaller.

Is that the Choc Mini in the Dareu keyboard? The mini should require a larger hole through the PCB.

I don't think so. From what I found there is no other than white. And still it does have different holes. You can see that here:
