Edit: Better yet, AC should have carried over "old" capacity until the end of the benefit year while still allowing you to dip into next years capacity once you have requalified. No one would be complaining about the system mechanics.

That would require them to just copy the eUpgrade implementation with grants and expiry dates.

Why on earth would they do that when they could write an entirely new system to do things in a worse way?
