ABC vs PS filter gaskets

Does anyone know why the ABC filter apparatus has a gasket on top of the filter, and the power steering one does not? I'm referring to item #17 in the diagram below.

The PS side still operates at 120bar, not that the return line sees that much, but the return line for the ABC side doesn't see 190bar, lol. Seems silly to not include that gasket on the PS side, but idk.
