SN74AHCT14: temperature specification inconsistency in datasheet

Part Number: SN74AHCT14

Hello Team, please could you explain following inconsistency:

There are two different operating temperatures mentioned for the SN74AHT series non automotive components (SN74AHCT14PW / SN74AHCT14PWR / SN74AHCT14PWG4) in Datasheet.  In recommended operating conditions,  Operating free-air temperature is provided as  −40 to 125 °C, but in  PACKAGING INFORMATION, Op Temp (°C) is mentioned as  -40 to 85 °C (refer below images).  Please clarify which one needs to be taken for design consideration.  Looking for your quick response.

Many Thanks

Josef
