I think you'll find that the speed additive is due to a slight increase in stall speed as the CG moves forward.

Generally the stall speed used for performance work is based on the forward limit. There is no reason why the OEM can't do a bit more work and define sub-envelopes within the overall CG envelope to get a slightly improved performance data set across the CG range.
