Not A Bug: Missing task switch in daily quest

Troubleshooting
yes, nothing seems to help
In some cases the task switch is missing from tasks of daily quests.
When this happens all the task from a certain point till the last are missing the button.
The explanation provided is that easiest task in the list do not rate a switch button and cannot be switched.

BUT when this happen multiple task are missing the button unless it's the last task only. This indicate that for whatever reason the ommitted button is affecting other tasks that should have it.

As an additional proof if the button in one of the other task is used the buttons re-appear!

Browser or App version and version number
Firefox and Chrome multiple versions
Recreation steps
Wait for a daily challange with at least one missing switch button
Check any task below the one that is misisng the button -> they also don't have the switch button

Test: use the switch button on one of the task that does have it.
Actual Behavior
Some task that are not the lowest difficulty are missing the button
Expected Behavior
Task at lowest difficulty only shoule be missing the button both for free switch and for diamonds switch. Or all task s should always have the button regardless if free or for diamonds.
Frequency
Infrequent it depend on what how easy the tasts are
Can this be reproduced?
yes, but it depend on random task assignment

I finally found a case where the missing switch is on a task that is NOT the easiest version of it for sure.

There is a task that ask to visit 10 friend tavern. But this one ask for 30 and the button is missing:

This is indeed not a bug.

There are some possible reasons in this thread, the first time it was reported: https://forum.beta.forgeofempires.c...equirements-in-a-daily-challenge.15298/page-2.

Thanks, I'm aware of that thread.
That is the reason it took me so much time to find example that prove that the reasons given in that tread do not justify what the code is doing.

It might be what the intension was, but not what the code actually does. Hence the bug.
But I'm not going to keep at it. If you cannot see the issue there is no point in trying again to report the bug.

Good luck.

Why "there SHOULD be (...)"??
This is just random. Nothing more, nothing less.

Consecutive task and ONLY consecutive tasks is the opposite of "random"

Edit: let me be more specific. The consecutive tasks always include the last one. It never is the first two or the first one only. Or even one in the middle.

I'm reporting this here, because this bug was already closed as "not a bug".

Today (on beta) I have a 3 task daily quest. Each had the switch button. I used the button on the 3rd one.
Then the button (with diamond) disapeared from the 2nd one (not the one I changed) and the new 3rd one didn't have a button.
I never saw the button disapear, but I admit that I don't use it that frequently.
