Hello Scott.
I think most likely explanation is nobody is using this feature for any
real analysis work - nobody noticed.
We are currently stretched pretty thin. I suggest you open support
ticket if you are a support customer, or open a public issue in case you
are not.
That way it will be at least tracked.
