Why does the Torah write "Vechiper alav" ? and not 'Vechiper lo'?

1.

Zevachim, 7a: To Darshen "Alav", 've'Lo al Chavero' ? a Chatas she'Lo li'Shemah only renders it Pasul if it is Shechted in the name of someone who is Chayav a Chatas like he is, but not if he is Chayav an Olah.

2.

Zevachim, 9b: To Darshen that a Chatas she'Lo li'Shemah only renders it Pasul if it is Shechted in the name of a live person, but not if it is Shechted in thye name of someone who is deceased, who is not subject to Kaparah. 1

Sifra: 1. To prohibit Shechting a Chatas for two people simultaneously; and 2. To permit a Kohen to bring his own Chatas.
