Why are the seeds different when going from seed to mnemonic and back using bx?

From an example in the documentation:

$ bx seed | bx mnemonic-new | bx mnemonic-to-seed | bx hd-new

In Mastering Bitcoin, the example given here shows it going back to the seed that was originally created; this was done using an older version of bx though. Can someone explain how the seeds from line 1 and line 3 in the example are encoded/related?
