Usually it's a portion difference, not a disagreement. This page scores sorbet at a serving of 1 small scoop of a low-FODMAP fruit flavour (e.g. lemon, strawberry); at large servings or high-fructose fruit flavours (apple, pear, mango) it belongs in the high band. A source quoting the larger serve will call it high, and one quoting the smaller will call it low — the same food, measured at two different amounts.
