USB Sync partially erases Strava Segment Leaderboard information

I spent half an hour on chat with Garmin support today about this problem. Their final statement was "that's weird".

FW 3.0

If I perform either a USB/Garmin Express sync or a Wifi sync, the information on the Strava segment leaderboard gets partially erased. Specifically, the "Recent Best" and "Last" times are wiped. The KOM and "Rival" times are unaffected. I have to perform at least one Bluetooth/Garmin Connect sync with my iPhone to repopulate my times on the Leaderboard. Is this normal? I went through deleting the segments from the Garmin and reinstalling via USB sync.

This is a feature of the fact that the 2 sync methods using different API's and Strava does not deliver the same leaderborad data through these API's.

Garmin Express and Garmin Connect Mobile are calling different API's. Strava does not provide a consistent set of data across these API's. The recent best and ;last times are only available via GCM.
