Match points, ACBL robot individual

Please note the West robot's play to trick 8 on this hand. I didn't have a dog in the fight on this specific hand (in 7 off 4 when North disdained Blackwood missing 9 HCP), but given that this is by no means an isolated instance I hope it is being or will be addressed. It isn't particularly gratifying to have a robot give you a contract in this way, and it is infuriating to have a good defense sabotaged when a robot, under no threat of an endplay, pointlessly throws, for instance, its 10 from 10xx under declarer's Jack, turning the 9 into a miraculous (and undeserved) winner for declarer.
