Yes it's true, they are not huge changes, anyhow it is quite interesting even for us, for example to look at the differences induced by different pawns.

I noticed that too, and that is what I had thought; thanks for sharing that!

I guess that is because the variants they study are hardly what we would consider variants here. Mostly they are miniscule modifications of the rules, such as making stalemate a draw, outlawing pawn double-push, or castling.
