That's interesting. Are these two the same model/brands, or different? What models/brands are they?

Some crank spider PMs (like, P2M and Quarq) produce L/R splits but they can be flaky because of the way they try to calculate the split. That said, some crank arm PMs produce kinda flaky data, too. I've wondered about pedal PMs but haven't had a chance to do a full test on their splits.
