Opinion is only as valid as its verifiable supporting evidence.
My guess is they are 'end run'. It's common practice to build more than ordered to allow for some being defective. If you get a low level of defective, you have extra product. Was very common in Japanese guitars in the old days. You would see guitars with no name on the headstock, or a sticker over the original name.
Altec didn't waste much. These are likely extra from a run for WE, so just slap on the Altec sticker.
Your neighbors called. They like your music.
