The Armalite Rifle 15 designed by stoner was designed to be a battlefield assaults weapon
The Colt Sporter was designed to a weapon for Civilians. Semi automatics at the time were not designed to be assaults weapons. That would be dumb. Plus, if it was designed to be an assault weapon it was have fallen under the NFA of 1934.
The Sporter was an effort to commercialize the Stoner design Colt had bought.
It failed. It is the end of it's variant branch.
So Colt decided to commercialize the detuned version it had sold to military and police - NOT THE SPORTER.
As EVERY citation makes PERFECTLY clear ALL AR-15 style rifles use the Stoner design.
