Half Plate vs Full Plate

Sorry if this has been mentioned.

Half plate currently gives AC 7, and doesn't allow any Dex AC bonus. It also has AP 7 and SF 40.
Full plate gives AC 8, allows 1 Dex AC bonus, and has reduced AP (6) and SF (35).

Looks like a bug to me. Shouldn't it be vise versa with Dex AC, AP and SF?

No, I didn't make any mistake there, hehe.
Here's the chart: http://www.d20srd.org/srd/equipment/armor.htm#tableArmorandShields
Full plate costs a lot more and is supposed to be a better suit of armour than the half plate.
