It's not 45° or even 135° (as you probably meant). Rather, it has the
same angle as the original one bend beam (6629), that is 143.13°. This
is according to Huw Millington, who has the part in questions himself.

In LDraw, we call these parts "liftarms". Anyway, the new part is not
shorter than before, it has indeed the same total length and the same
number of holes as the old one. But the bend is one hole closer to the
shorted end. This is also according to Huw Millington.

If you had read the post you followed up on, it would have been clear to
you that we were now discussing the new, shorter bent beam which
appeared in the connectable sets earlier this year.
