The simplest answer: because Laurel says so.  There's a Bruce
precedent:

    Augmentations in Society armory should always be blazoned as such;
    the bearer has the option of displaying the armory with or without
    the augmentation, and conflict should be checked against both
    versions.  (Rondallyn of Golgotha, September, 1992, pg. 26)
