034 2.7T stage 3 OTS tune - Why are fuel trims blocked out?

032 long term fuel trims are coded out so I can't see them. I can't effectively diagnose misfires on my car without this vital information.
I have asked multiple times and the answer is always, I'll have to get back to you or I don't know.
They claim 001 short term fuel trims are plenty fine for a workaround. Huh, what?

It seems they are doing this as some sort of software protection, but that makes zero sense to me.
And begs the questions, why don't they want us to be able to see fuel trims?
Is this common for tuners? I have never heard of a tuner that blocks out fuel trims.

Can anybody shine some light on this?

The only thing I can offer is that if your N80 (I think) is coded out but not resistor-ed out you won't see LTFTs. Is yours at least plugged in or have a resistor in place?
