CAWs, whales, AI, oh my!

Concur that mainly the opportunity cost prevents the development of what PA wants.

My contention is that even simpler needs remain unmet.

Plenty of ADWs and PPs won't even let you sort the field by odds, not to mention query, sort, export other data fields. The lack of basic ability is staggering.

I get the lack of motivation to invest in a suitable modern interface for handicapping and betting. But at what point is it actually more expensive to deliver data in a PDF or cumbersome app than a simpler interface or export that would serve both customer and supplier better?

We shouldn't have to resort to APIs and the knowledge to use them just to query and sort basic data points.

I'll offer that I find sportsbook interfaces no less infuriating. They seem to have no interest in making real time betting easy. Takes several more clicks than necessary to plow past sucker bets to show a basic, logical wager, then it vanishes and reverts back five clicks by the time you try to execute.

Not only is there little motivation to improve customer experience, there's probably a perverse incentive to make it worse.
