I tripped over an error in the third registration role. Notice how the first registration started with men born 5 Jun 1886? The third registration therefore must have included men born between 12 Sep 1873 and 4 Jun 1886. (One of my cousins was born in the gap between 12 Sep 1888 and 4 Jun 1886, and he was in the third registration.)
Let me know if I haven't been clear.

As a result, this first registration included men born between June 5, 1886 and June 5, 1896.
This [third registration] added younger men than the previous registrations, those who were born between September 12, 1897 and September 12, 1900; and added an older group of men, born between September 12, 1873 and September 12, 1888.
