I thought noteworthy since clearly one gib is making bids the other gib is not understanding.
This seems very simple. If you are forced to bid then you bid. Anything.
Next lowest bid if nothing else.

I would chalk this up to bad luck. On another distribution, 75 would be a stopper and 4NT would roll.

I think GiB is expecting at least one human at the table. Which bot is to blame. Is it all the same bot. Etc Do people intentionally torment the poor thing. I get enough disasters without setting them up

Goffster's suggestion is reasonable.
Unfortunately, for a year or more, BBO seems to have been unable to spare a programmer to fix GiB bugs :(
No spokesperson has been prepared to hazard a guess as to when BBO might start to address such issues. :(
