They may differ. They differ even now. It is normal.

That is why when you enable "wal_consistency_checking" (developer option,
not present in sample postgresql.conf), pages are masked: allowed to be
different pieces are zeroed (pages hint bits, tuple hint bits, space
between pd_lower and pd_upper).

Before last version, empty space between tuples with
"repair_fragmentation=false" was certainly possible source of difference
not masked by standard mask procedure. But now those holes are zeroed.
