Why is this a standard and not a traditional?

Hi guys, I thought the spec on this looks like a traditional rather than a standard, (speed knobs, plastic tuners).

Is it possible that it is a standard?

    Looks like a Trad that’s been ‘Standardized’ to me! I have a 2010 Trad and swapped out the truss rod cover and tuners to get the look.
    If it was a 2010 Standard I believe it would have the see-through plastic control cavity cover on the back?

    Hopefully not.

    The Trad is the guitar that the Standard always wished it could be...
