The reason could be because they have different NAND Flashs in these 2 revisions.
Samsung 990 Pro has 2 variants:

Firmware: 0B2QJXD7 - Samsung V-NAND V7 TLC 176-Layers 512Gb D-Die
Firmware: 1B2QJXD7 -Samsung V-NAND V7 TLC 176-Layers 512Gb D-Die
Firmware: 2B2QJXD7 -Samsung V-NAND V7 TLC 176-Layers 512Gb D-Die
Firmware: 3B2QJXD7 -Samsung V-NAND V7 TLC 176-Layers 512Gb D-Die
Firmware: 4B2QJXD7 -Samsung V-NAND V7 TLC 176-Layers 512Gb D-Die

Firmware: 0B2QJXG7 - Samsung V-NAND V8 TLC 238-Layers 1Tb B-Die
Firmware: 4B2QJXD7- Samsung V-NAND V8 TLC 238-Layers 1Tb B-Die

Reason could be different nand wafers with different endurance ratings
