Probably the difference in turn around times between the rapid tests they do constantly vs the PCMR test which takes a lot longer to produce results.

They probably can't feasibly rely solely on the PCMR results coming back in time, so they supplement them with the rapid tests but it allows for some of these issues to pop up potentially.
