The issue here is your new milestone naming scheme. You introduced a
new serie/milestones breaking all tracking tools (including
status.l.o).
Last time you mentioned that changes, I recommended to discuss it with
a larger attendance and send a mail to announce your intent to change
the rules. It didn't happened, so I guess other things are broken.

No, it's because we do that only for KWG/PMWG. On Android, regular
rule applies: blueprint targeted to be delivered this cycle and
implemented.
