Default Umpqua 5x Leaders 5 lb or 4 lb?

I purchased a 3-pack Umpqua 9' 5x Trout Taper Leaders over the weekend which
is marked 5 lb on the package. Wondering if this is a printing mistake.
Didn't realize it until I got home. The tip Dia is still .006" and the butt
dia is still .021", but the rating is now 5 lb. instead of 4 lb. I have one
leader in a package from a previous purchase that says 5x 4 lb. The Umpqua
website still says 5x 4 lb.
