The 70.3 Tasmania result is up on the PTO results list:
https://stats.protriathletes.org/...asmania/2023/results
It shows that this race was (assessed by PTO) as a Silver 'tier' race and that the "SOF" (whatever that is but replaces 'AIT' in a column in the individual athlete's results) - 65 for the WPROs and 68 for the MPROs.

I guess the PTO will soon share the revised 2023 ranking protocol which I think they said a set of athletes had been working on.
If this is going to inform athletes' selection of races (other than 'do the PTO Tour' (only if top 40/50 by whatever cut off date)) then it needs to be published.
An interesting aspect is whether the PTO are going to revise the points gained in 2022 as those points will be carried forward into the 2023 rankings (ie races in last 365 days).
Currently on the PTO website they have the 2021 protocol version: https://protriathletes.org/...-rankings-explained/
