Frontier Developments any plans to extend ARX weekly cap for those who can not play the game right now?

Short backstory: Couple of weeks ago there was GalNet news about item called: Rockforth Fertiliser. News article endorsed players to take advantage of the prices and many did.
Including myself, but with that feature there was this little issue. You see Elite Dangerous market system does not update things live, but on session basis. As the values of the items were bought and sold the prices never updated. One might argue that it was by design, others argue it was exploit / bug or what not.

Anyways this discussion here is not what it really was, everyone has freedom to have own opinions.

Fact is that best course of action was to just re-roll everything, what done that very event. So Frontier Developments decided to remove every credit what was made that day.

Fine by me, but there was problem / bug or what you say on that.
Some people who got their money removed wasted much more after the event, so this meant, that people all the credits were removed. Those people went negative - all fair.
But others who didn't go negative and still had enough credits got some money removed, what they made during the event.
But then they got same amount of money removed again (second time).

When this happened example me lost every credit I had (billions I made before the event and hundreds of millions I made after the event via Mining / Missions / Combat etc.).

So there I am waiting my support ticket, what will take another 7 days to even get reply and who knows how many more weeks until everything gets resolved.

Normally this story ends, players just wait until they get their credits back, when they got double charged.
But as we players wait we are missing off ability to do weekly tasks to get our weekly ARX cap.

One might say, that if you have ships, then just undock and do what ever you need - I say undocking with 0 credits and no-rebuy is madness.
I have been playing since 2016 and I will not simply undock with no rebuys.

So there for I have come to the question for the Frontier Developments.

Is there any plans to extend ARX cap for those people who got their credits falsely removed ? People who are now stuck in the station, not able to play the game etc.

I mean credits what was made via Rockforth Fertiliser event got removed to balance and make fair gameplay for everyone.
How fair it will be for those who are missing out ARX weekly cap, because Frontier Developments made mistake.

Thank you for your time, fly safe o7

Edit:
And before someone is saying things like:
  • It is your fault you exploited / used bugs now deal with it...
  • Just leave the game and never return, what ever. etc. etc. etc...
You guys are better than this, don't be like this.
 
Can't you just use a mining ship, get some vopals and voila, enough rebuys again?
It's not that in solo there is much danger....
 
If you have a cheap small ship you can synthesise limpets and sell them to the station till you have enough for rebuy then run missions as usual in the small ship until you have enough to fly a bigger one confidently.

Is that the in game equivalent of selling pencils from a cup in real life? 🤭

Could be that the game bugs out when you reach a negative credit balance. Dunno, never been there...
 
Yea, morals is: if you notice an exploit, dont jump the bandwagon - just report it and move along

Now, no credits? Sell a ship. Sell a module.
Sell a 6A fuel scoop and you can finance a core miner AspX. That's 100t cargo, that's 160 millions in less than 2 hours.
Yea, granted is not as effective as fertilizer cashcow exploit...

Gee, even in an Adder you can do core mining. It can bring back 35 millions for 3 millions purchase price and 150k rebuy.

And then you want some arx ontop of it... 🤣
