    That's the same reversal as in the premise is it not? What am I missing.

    I have yet to take this test, but I just noticed your post has yet to have any follow up.
    Logically, these are the same mistake:

    If the conditional given is:
    A--->B
    Premise gives us B
    Argument concludes: A

    And

    The conditional given is:
    A--->B
    Premise gives us A
    Argument concludes B

    Both of these mistakes are the sufficient/necessary conflations, but they are operationally not the same mistake in the argument. The LSAT has indeed called on us to differentiate between these two mistakes before.

    I hope this helps and my apologies for not having that deep of an answer here because I have yet to take this PT.
