ACBL Regional Points Why don't they flow from ACBL back to BBO?

There was an ACBL regional a couple of weeks ago. But I noticed that the points won in that event do not appear in BBO totals like other ACBL events do. Is there a policy reason for this? Or is it just that nobody got around to doing it? Or it's just too hard for the BBO "platform" to handle?

ACBL awards MPs separate or in addition to BBO points. You won't see ACBL awards in your BBO point totals.

BBO has very limited development resources. When working with ACBL on the regional, they agreed to handle the masterpoints on their end, since ACBLScore already knows how to do it, rather than having us add this complexity to the BBO server. So these tournaments were treated as normal tournaments by BBO, and uses the same masterpoint calculation we've been using for years.

The same thing was done for the Silver Week.
