Why is the L0170 not available in the L escutcheon design?

The Schlage L0170 is not available with the L escutcheon design because due to the narrow size you cannot fit the mounting plate underneath.  The mounting plate must sit on a "diamond" and not on a "square" (see Figure 1) to mount the lock on a wood door.

Figure 1: The correct way to install the L0170 mounting plate is shown on the right and the L escutcheon is too narrow for proper installation.
