I mean, the really glaringly puzzling thing is the lossy process of hand-transcribing the information from the authoritative (and necessarily structured) source to a muddy, ambiguous target. Obviously somebody cares enough to put the schedule on the website but the neurons that understand that this could be a simple automated transformation operation instead of an additional task for somebody on the comms team are nonexistent. But then that somewhat affirms your point about the yes-ministerization that occurs the second information systems (which are technologically invariant) touch computers.
