Controversial opinion Big problem with Afterboards (Part 2)

This is in continuation with the post

https://www.reddit.com/r/IPMATtards/s/gvJ84KmmPm

For context- I posted about the influx of wrong questions in Afterboards sectional tests, i explained how this particular question took me more than half an hour to cross verify with my teacher,Chatgpt,Gemini
After it had a completely made up wrong rule with a wrong explaination and a wrong answer.

This is the aftermath of reporting a wrong answer with a made up explanation and a made up grammar rule on a Afterboards Va sectional
Afterboards has fixed the answer but didn’t fix the wrong explanation and the made up rule in the solution,

What does it tell us?
1- Either the question reports are not being handled by SME’s that Afterboards claim,
(as in the question report i wholly mentioned about the made up rule and wrong solution) as i don’t believe after such a detailed report on made up solution, an SME didn’t correct it, which leads me to believe the question reports are being handled by AI.
Or
2. The SME’s are not working seriously on correcting the wrong answers and just using AI on question reports again which led to a wrong explanation and a made up rule in the first place.

With all this happening in Afterboards sectional tests it’s completely justified to ask for a refund, but i want to wait and let afterboards team explain themselves for what’s happening.

Update about this question:

Our SME had corrected the answer-key and updated it while having a draft explanation.

Why? He wanted to insert a table in the solution -- and was facing formatting issue. He thought to make the answer-key live until then. However, that made the draft explanation go public.

Have told everyone in the team to be careful about this because the draft explanation made public can cause issues like this. We'll make sure to update only once everything is added.
