The link seems to be explicitly about e-books (and I think that's what Scalzi was referring to as well). When you're referring to standard contracts, do you mean for e-books or physical books? I wonder if that may be where the difference is coming in here. I think the standard contracts for physical books are, as you stated, based on the list price.
