Raid Compensation?

I searched the forums but didn’t find a discussion specifically on this, though perhaps it’s been merged with another raid topic, so if this already exists, my apologies.
Is kabam working on a compensation package for those that participated in raids for this beta test?
I can’t speak for others, but I know for my group we ran into the first glitch on our first fight against kang in the middle path. One of my alliance mates after just completing a run where he hit the damage cap, had his game crash on the end of fight results screen. When he loaded back in, his fight has not registered, still had his full health, but all our charges were set back to 0 when we had built full charges. So essentially, we each had to use an extra 2 revives just to ramp up again.
The second glitch happened against ultron at the end where, again, had just ramped up and started doing real damage when the revive glitch occurred, and also wiped out our charges once again, forcing us to start from square 1 after all our efforts. Ultron was a lot harder to ramp up than kang was, so I estimate it took about 4 extra revives each to get back to what we had prior, not to mention health potions since by that time our 100% revives were gone and not available.
So all in all, just my group of 3 (for our middle path) we’re forced to use 6+ extra revives (including units/glory to purchase those as well as health potions), and the other 7 teammates down the other paths used up approx 4+ (along with units/glory/health potions)…
Has this been acknowledged as something that should, in some way at least, be accounted for? Playing poorly is one thing, but when a glitch occurs that costs us an immense amount of our resources we had saved, I think that is compensation worthy.

There were plenty of other issues with this mode beyond the token loss.
The event felt extremely unpolished, I and others in my alliance wasted revives and pots due to input issues or dumb mechanics like the Thanos block hit mission. If anything some AQ revives and pots would be nice to make up for that.
Also, crashing is a reality. It happens often on my device when I play for more than 20 minutes, no need to be presumptuous.
Compensation however, in my eyes, should be only applied to unintended consequences, not the bad design choices.

Kabam, Don't be so uncaring for the player base, at least inform if those issues mentioned are issues and if you intend to rectify or at least clarify
