Is the claim engine different on ACOL tournaments?

Happened today.

I draw trumps, unfortunately the split is 3-1, not 2-2; opps have a winner trump outstanding. At this stage (5 tricks played), I have top tricks in side suits followed by a cross-ruff.

I am bound to lose the trump loser eventually. However, my cross-ruff line is obvious and unaffected by if/when they use their winner trump. I claim 7 of the remaining 8 tricks. The bot rejects my claim!

I am quite sure this rejection by bots did not occur in the past (and I suspect it never happens in non-ACOL daylongs). Did something change? Are claims no longer allowed if E/W have a winner trump?
