Yeah well sports medicine hasn't done a whole hell of a lot to change breakdown rates over the years.

Who still buys yearlings with multiple vascular channels showing in their sesamoids on the prepurchase rads?
Does anyone keep a big growthy young colt at pasture with virtually no breaking or work at all until he's three? Do people feed that big growthy colt high protein to make him grow more quickly?
Anybody still use 6mm toe rims?
Do most give a horse starting with little bit of sore shins complete pasture rest for 60 days, or work him through it?

If you cant see that publishing monthly breakdown rates is a waste of time and leads people to draw completely unfounded conclusions that that is your cross to bear. Simply releasing data can do nothing but further confuse the issue.

In some eyes they are damned if they do (release data) and damned if they don't (evil hiding of data).
IMO, the more info out there, the better.
