They didn't 're-badge' them to pass off as their own but merely to show what the function was! They happily advertised that they used Bogen heads.

Stacked stereo really came to the fore thanks to the immense popularity of 1/4 track mono, while 3-channel 'stereo' was still available in some USA studios to 'muddle' true binaural separation to give a more natural effect; indeed I believe the BBC preferred poor cross-talk to that end.
