All of these retailers are US, and they are passing on the information that they would have received from the US distributer. The US distributer is not the manufacturer though, the only manufacturer is in Japan as far as I know.
A distributer (or a retailer) can rate a product to a higher specification than the manufacturer as long as they provide warranty support to that rating as far as I know. Perhaps this is simply the case here? The US distributer is rating it higher as it is willing to warrant that the mount will operate normally, and under full warranty, at up to 50lb?
