Campagnolo never referred to the 144bcd arms as "Nuovo Record." Case closed. It's likely, by the way, that the 144bcd arms were around before the first true "Nuovo Record" bit - the bottom bracket - was even created, though not available beyond the pro ranks. If you look at the components that received the "Nuovo" label, you can see that they embody some kind of significant design improvement relative to their "Record" predecessor - more significant than simply changing the bcd of the crank arms.
