Did they lower the flipper buttons, or the whole cab? I assume the distance from the buttons to the glass is about the same...

Quoted from AlexRogan84:I also noticed on my own games right now that the angle of the Stern cabinets are different. While the playfield angle is still this 6 or 7 degrees we shoot for, the whole cabinet is pitched forward more than the others. I assume this is by design, but maybe it isn't and mine just went that way. You know how they say not to set the playfield angle by using the top of the glass? I think because the glass angle is not only different than the playfield angle, but it's different across games.
I think you've got the answer here. They wanted to incline the playfield more, but not make the cab taller, or lose space between the glass and the playfield, so they inclined the whole cab by mounting the legs higher on the front, which also had the effect of lowering the lockdown bar+flipper buttons slightly
