FWIW uninstalling the 7x conf and reinstalling it with the cleanup led to 702
files to be downloaded. Being paranoid I am taking a couple good backups before
I load that many new things on my machine. So apparently the previous 7x install
didn't take completely.

I notice that the system which declares 7.3 has been supposedly running 7x for

I figure there must be some good reason for this. I'm wondering what that good
reason might be.
$ rpm -q sl-release
This should be a good indication. If this package is not updated, then the
whole system announces itself as an older release - plus the base sl7-*
repositories point at an older release as well.
