Yes, while they are both LVDS based panels the extra LVDS sink in these
panels, and the capability to decode and display the 2 sets of signals
are enough hardware differences that warrant for an addition of a new
compatible.

Yes, exactly. Even while being non-smart, there are going to be more
quirks in future. And it would be better if they have their own
compatible/binding, and are not getting appended in an ever-growing
if-else ladder. :)
