If you’re looking back at a job that was scheduled and has now been sent it’s more useful and consistent to know what time it went out. The time it was uploaded at is a bit arbitrary once it’s sent. The only time the uploaded time is relevant is when the job is still waiting to be sent. Slightly fiddlier than it sounds because we never want to show ‘uploaded by’ for a job that hasn’t been scheduled because it almost immediately changes to ‘sent by’. This flickering of the UI is undesirable.
