Relay Footprint Question

Part Number: PE014F02

I used a latching relay (datasheet above) by mistake and I'm wondering if I can a find a non-latching relay that matches the footprint? Right now, I'm just going down the list for TE relays on digikey and not having any luck, seems they all have a slightly different footprints. Would anyone know an easier way to search for a relay by footprint?

The attached screenshot is one of the most atrocious things I've seen in a datasheet lately.
The difference between placing pins on a 2.5mm grid or a 2.54mm grid is just big enough to cause problems when accumulated over such distance With 7 pitches it's 0.28mm.

On top of that, Making it look like DIP-14 pin compatible but then putting pins 11, 12 and 14 in different locations is also not the smartest move. Also notice it's a bottom view, which is also annoying for designing a PCB Footprint.

Somebody should go tho that shrek company and fire the guy responsible for that, or at least put funnels in his ears, paint his head green and parade him around for a week.

I think the 11, 12 and 14 are not pin numbers, but electrical signals numbers, to complete the A1 and A2.

Could there be two versions of the relay, one with 2.5mm centers and the other with 0.1inch centers?

The worst relay data sheet I recently had to deal with recommended a couple PCB drill holes that were too small, 1.0mm instead of 1.3mm. The manufacturer still had not corrected the error before they discontinued the relay, a pity as it had 10X the contact life of its competitors and its substitute.
