Driver outputs Y and Z are shorted to A and B respectively. This reduces overall cabling requirements. Also DE/RE are shorted to each other, and at a time, any node acts as either a driver or a receiver.

Your request for us to get into some datasheet somewhere, to get the
answer to the basic question, is not reasonable. Commit must justify its
existence, not some external source.

It's not about explaining it here, but making your changes justified and
obvious once implemented.
