"Although she had hoped to be allowed to transition on the job, IBM fired Conway in 1968 after she revealed her intention to transition.[20] IBM apologized for this in 2020." Good grief. Took them long enough.

They're not getting rid of the program. It's just being replaced by another program, but for some reason they are not transferring the points. Very dumb and easily fixable.
