I believe that you will find an answer here:

"These electronic gearboxes can be applied to new motor designs or retrofitted to existing motors. It doesn’t change the fundamental design of the motor at all—in many cases, rewiring the windings is all that’s needed."
Clearly it is advantageous to make any configuration changes early in the development process to minimize rework.
