Because Silver camera owners are to be encouraged.........
or it's my fault for buying the black version of the lens........
or they are trying to tempt me to buy another one to match my silver K3 and K1ii..........

It is probably because the black version sells more, and are affected by price changes or currency changes earlier.

The silver KP is often cheaper than the black one, and similarly for various lenses at various times.
