A lot of the software used to coordinate this stuff is very ancient at this point. The fix is straightforward from a technical point of view but super complicated to implement because it involves replacing/fixing half a century old software systems in use in thousands of companies across the industry. Probably a lot of cobol and other crap that is still in use for this.
