I just checked the parts fiche because I was curious and the 17s and 18s have a different part number for some reason?

Could be as simple as a different vendor.

Yes ( well on the 16 anyway) i just corked a few of them this past week and all had the thin layer of foam backing material..
Thumb warmers still are bad- power to the wires and just doesn't work
( I mean doesn't get warm) bought a new one for a older pro 2014-2015 tried it and still has power but no heat.
Only difference was the protective outer sheave on the 16 axys same plug male/female plug.
