The Primary Edition Very Rare cards were divided into two groupings; Group 2 (this sheet) contains 45 cards while Group 1 contains 100 cards. Group 2 Very Rares were printed twice each on the Group 2 Very Rare Sheet along with the 9 Entities which were printed once each. The last slot on the sheet was likely filled with the C4 War Veteran, which was the first Promotional card that Companion Games used to promote the wider relase of the game, which they wanted to hand out at the tournaments.
What should have happened with the two Very Rare sheets is that the Group 1 Sheet would be printed in twice the quantity as the Group 2 Sheet, resulting in an equal number of Very Rare cards being printed across both sheets. Then the 10 Entity & Promo cards would be cut and separated from the Group 2 cards, the Group 2 & Group 1 Very Rare cards cut and mixed together then used to fill boosters, with one pack per box being packaged with one of the Entity cards.
What appears to have happened is that the Group 2 cards were printed in the same quantity as the Group 1 cards, which would have made the Very Rare cards in this group twice as common as the Very Rare cards from Group 1. Then, what did happen is that cards from the two groups were not mixed together. Instead entire booster boxes were packaged with Very Rare cards from only Group 1 or from Group 2.
These two sets of booster boxes then appear to have been kept separate in the warehouse, likely so they could be distributed in a ratio that kept the two groups of VR cards roughly proportionate. Assuming that the Group 2 cards were printed in too high of a quantity, this would have further exasperated the problem of Group 2 VR being more common in the warehouse stock, as more Group 1 boxes would have shipped out. Then, when the company went bankrupt nobody knew about the two groupings of cards, so they were acquired randomy in bulk by different liquidators. Then some of the buyers who had stock of Group 1 boxes sold off cases of boxes cheap years ago (I know I bought some of these), resulting in Group 1 boxes being far less common that Group 2 boxes today. In fact, it appears the only eBay retailer with stock only has Group 2 boxes in stock.
Note that the depicted Print Sheets are just example layouts. I don't know what the actual card layout of these sheets were. In fact, the actual layout was likely more randomized to make it easier to pack boosters.
