Question is why would the local Honda Manufacturer get it so wrong with
the jet sizes?
Ie why did they fit a jet x2 sizes richer when it appears it should be
x2 sizes leaner.

Only Honda can answer that definitively. The rest of us can only guess.
I will speculate that the remote air filter kit is for several different
engines and Honda neglected to include the correct jets for each of them.

So practically a small engine with a long air intake requires a lean
jet and theoretically speaking one with no intake of filter would
require a richer one am I on the right path ?

More filtration that results in a higher vacuum will in turn require a
leaner mix.
