A320 vs 319&321 autoland limitation FCOM notes

There is this reference in our company's SOPs on CAT 2/3 procedures which are extracts from the FCOMs which are bugging me because there is a statement which is applicable for the 319/321 but is missing for the 320. To be specific here is the statement pasted :
''During automatic rollout with one engine inoperative or one thrust reverser inoperative, the flight crew can use the remaining thrust reverser, provided that: Only IDLE reverse thrust is used''
the above statement is valid for the A319 and A321 . the same statement is missing for the A320 ( in every revision )
So i take it that on automatic roll-out with a 320 you can use the remaining reverser in full reverse. but if the assumption is correct , it doesn't make sense for the 320 to be exempted from this restriction.
Anyone happen to came across the explanation ?
