choice b confuses me. why did he make 2 switches instead of 1 switch?

in the first switch the hydrogen was in the back so i am confused on why he did a 2nd switch.

bc if you only do one switch, the molecules are diasteromers. in order for them to remain the same molecule/enantiomers, you have to do an even number of switches
