I completely agree with your remark about confirmation bias, but looking at the EK source, which is devoid of this, it is quite clear that CPT usually gets older frames. In the last 30 days, the newest one was ENN (Feb 2014), there are numerous EB and EG frames.

Of course there may well be exceptions, my sample is only the last 30 days...
