Usually it's a portion difference, not a disagreement. This page scores sushi at a serving of 6-8 pieces of rice-based rolls (avocado limited to a small amount, ~30g); at Rolls heavy with avocado (Sorbitol), onion, or garlic-soy marinades 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.
