Why are they showing consistently straight all of sudden and seem to fade away with minimal wear.

According to the imperfect metal theory, part of the metal is imperfect while the other part is not. I think both theories are plausible and support the lines not always going all the way through the coins.. You'll have to take your pick, the mint won't cooperate with a study.
