A320 FOM Vs FCOM Gear limiting speeds

I have a particular query with respect to the airbus limitations concerning the landing gear operating speeds.With reference to the picture attached , you can see on the left side ( which is the FCOM ) that the landing gear operating speeds , all 3 speeds have a Mach limitation (VLO : 0.67 , VLOextension : 0.60 , VLOretraction : 0.54 ) . When you look the section to the right which is the AFM , only the VLO has a Mach limitation . Is there a reason the AFM makes no mentioning of the limitation in terms of Mach ?This is important since the Mach limitations (basically the VLOextension) will be a consideration for extension in case of emergency descent from high altitude .
