Ibanez: Maple S

This isn't a new concept; there was an S470 featuring a maple fretboard not too long ago, which was removed from the catalogs (discontinued). The S5470M here is quite a re-manifestation of that model but I'm a little perplexed as to why the discontinued ZR bridge is in use here when the rest have returned to the more traditional Lo-Pro Edge models.

Perhaps the lo pro is a more popular bridge compared to the zr bridge??

not about popularity, the ZR had been disused, why re-use it? the Edge/ Lo-pro models had been revived due to patent expiry more than its popularity.
