Hmmm, thanks for pointing that out, I wondered the same thing when I looked at the HPS brake sensors if they were unique for fr/rr. Never bothered to compare against my OEM ones until now, since I'm not due for pads for a while. Glad I kept my OEM sensors.

For anyone that's wondering, here is a photo of the HPS sensors (top) vs OEM. Note the longer OEM rear sensor.
