It matters whether or not the barrel plays in tune with good tone and response with whatever clarinet you put it on. Backun "[gets] around" the difference by producing a range of bore measurements and letting the customer decide which barrel works best with the instrument he wants to use the barrel with. You try several and choose by what you hear and feel.
I don't know that Moennig or Chadash Buffet barrels are truly consistent in their bore dimensions, either, but they are probably meant to be. An A barrel's bore is nominally different (smaller, I think) from a Bb barrel.
