VGP assembly gap annotation vs. AGP file

I'm curious about the lack of gap annotation in the VGP genome assemblies. Looking at the AGP files supplied with the assemblies, for example:

 GCA_007474595.1_mLynCan4_v1.p

the chr*.comp.agp.gz files have no references at all to the gaps in the assembly. Of the 24 assemblies I have seen to date, only one has any gap annotation in the AGP files:

 GCF_900246225.1_fAstCal1.2

with the following characteristics of the annotated gaps:

The actual total gaps in this assembly are much more than indicated in these AGP file specifications.

The table below indicates the actual gaps (any sequence of unknown nucleotides) in the assemblies. Clearly some of these assemblies have significant gaps and I suspect some of them are non-bridged gaps.
