A Scotseal is self-contained, and has a stiff inner rubber ring that slides over axle and remains stationary, wear and sealing action is all inside the seal unit, so it's a good solution if the axle's been damaged a bit, or worn by the old seal. A GOOD product, but requires careful installation, preferably by the correct driver because if dinged or damaged a bit it will quickly fail.
"Hand install" seal is rubberized on the outside and can easily be popped into place by hand, so special care or special tools required, vs. the original seal that's a TIGHT fit and pretty much requires a custom driver, and some skill and care to install without damage.
Both seem sensible to me, time moves on, different ideas and ways of doing things come along, I don't see it as a BAD thing to have those extra seal options, IMHO.
