I think all the subsequent series CLs were double-printed, which explains why they seem much more common and have multiple variations. (Series 2 was 131 cards and CL3 was therefore double-printed, for example). So it wasn't actually short-printed so much as the other checklists being double-printed makes it seem so.
The CL3 was single printed on the 2nd series sheet. The extra card was CL2. CL3 would also be single printed on the 3rd series sheet. This is why there were often variations of checklists from this era.
