One difference is: Worst-case MOs are supposed to upper-bound the difficulty of some problem, like eliciting hidden goals, they need not exhibit super realistic behaviours or mechanisms. Constructed MOs are supposed to behave similarly to the real-life case so you can learn about the real situation, but they need not be a difficult case for safety measures.
