I see this as the same as the difference between the masculine/feminine uses of XQ, )BR, and over a hundred other Hebrew nouns. CLMWT as a plural occurs several other times in Tanakh, I count another nine times.

OK, I understand now, you read CLMWT as the -ot plural of CLMH, rather than as a singular in -ut as I did. Well, of course the Masoretic punctuation ends in -awet, so who knows what was original.
