I can't speak for the developers of the EB stat system. I don't think that stats were as well researched at that time, unless Aradan had already published his guide, though the EB team still seems to have come up with a good formula anyways. EBNOM's stats will be based on EB's, though generated with a different tool.
I can say for a fact, that EBNOM stats will have axes, maces, and kopides similar in stats, though variable atk vs. defense
