I don't understand the question.

As far as I know the Ari-Gra version changes the planetary / double letter associations, and from thereafter I am not aware of any tradition of either returning to the classical or using the newer Gra correspondences. This trend of ignoring the classical attributions has continued up to the present. Why this is so, I do not know.
