Could it be, that the exhaust and bypass air-gas stream is expanded at low speeds but contracts at higher speeds? The wide gasstream could affect a deployed flaperon, so it's pulled up, but a narrower stream will allow the flaperon to be in line with the flaps, and increase the effectivity during take off.
