Both too much pressure to start with then you get it hot and grease expands its got to go somewhere, so out the inner seal it goes. I too thought you pumped it full until I read it last time I was putting them on. Every person I asked how much grease you put in every single person was wrong, they said pump it full then argued when I said manufacture says otherwise. I will also add 99% of friends who I asked are mechanics of some kind not necessarily trailer mechanics but have all put on many sets of trailer bearings.
