Strange campaign file in AB

In H3ab_bmp.lod you can find all 7 campaigns from RoE, all 6 campaigns from AB... and one very odd file named Neutral.h3c. Its version is 4.0, while all other campaigns from AB are 5.0. Changing version doesn't work either (it says campaign files are broken). Putting this into game, however, reveals that it's some modified (older?) version of "Spoils of War" campaign.

I see some little changes, like campaign's "map" colors (red instead of brown), other music and the last video starting AFTER choosing the side instead of before. Has anyone found anything else and does anyone know what exactly is this and why is it here?

Interestingly, there are some spelling mistakes in the Neutral.h3c campaign description. It's corrected with Neutral1.h3c which is the Spoils of War file actually in use.
The other campaign files are named "Good1, Good2..." "Evil1, Evil2..."
Maybe they introduced a few fixes with AB and simply forgot to delete the old file. On the the same token it might have been planned to add more neutral camapaigns before Armageddon Blade's reconception.
