A (too?) leisurely Aeneas on this JC denarius?

In the past few months I picked up a Julius Caesar denarius with an Aeneas reverse. While shopping for a very long time, I probably looked at a gazillion of them. I saw one this morning that struck me as unusual. It is the one on the left in the photo; mine is one on the right.

In many (most? all?) of these denarii, Aeneas's legs are far apart, indicating his striding motion as he is fleeing a burning Troy with his father Anchises on his back. In the left coin, however, Aeneas is hardly "manspreading"; his legs seem unusually close together for the type, as if he's out for a leisurely stroll, not running to save his father's life.

I want to stop short of casting aspersions on this coin. Indeed, other features of the coin argue for authenticity. I'd rather just assume that this is an engraving variation that I've not yet encountered. Would anyone with some experience with this type care to comment on whether they have encountered such a variation of this reverse type?

It's a very large issue with lots of dies, sort of like the Caesar elephant issue. It's just a varation IMO. Other close leg examples:

 

My best guess is that @Carthago is correct

 

Thanks for the ocular proof, @Carthago! I now completely disagree with Cato and @Mikey Zee that you must be destroyed.
