Gold arena 6* points broken

Anyone else having issues with 6*'s not getting full amount of points in the gold arena? I'm only getting around 30k instead of the normal 65k. Some of my alliance mates are getting normal points and some are getting half like me.

You can literally get all milestones in 20 minutes, and yet people are still complaining that they don't get enough points?
This is ridiculous.
I would've only let 1 and 2* champs be eligible for this arena, so you would really have to put in some effort for that gold
PI of champs in this Gold Arena is same PI as when used in 5* Feature Arena.
But agree with all others, different arenas (not only this one) award different levels of points for different Star Rarity of champs.
In case you haven’t seen, 5* champs get somewhere about 20-25% more points when used in the 5* Feature Arena versus any of the others you can use 5* in (4* Feature and 2-day Cat Arenas) for matches and opponents that are otherwise the same.
So this Gold Arena they just decided NOT to give 6* the normally-doubled amount vs 5* that they are in other ones. This way they don’t have to set the top Milestone too high for lower players, but doesn’t let high players reach it much too quickly without barely any time effort. It is 7 days after all. Frankly, maybe 5* and 6* should have both been even lower, to the points level that 4* points are in this arena.
There is a jump between 2* and 3*, and then again another jump between 4* and 5*.
Below (pre-fight Points, some pics during streak, last pic at beginning) see that 5* does indeed give double (approx) the points as SAME PI of 3*/4*. It's just that 6* does not go ahead and double that again (to be 4 times that of 4* champs).
So only difference is that they don’t add the extra factored bump-up for 6*. And as I said before, some arenas have different bump-ups than other arenas (not just Sunday ones), all arenas are not the same. And @Teleus , nowhere do they detail what the points breakdown is in ANY arena for using different Rarity/Rank/Level (other than the normal Win-Streak multiplier capped up to 3x.), so why would they need to tell us that this arena may be awarding points differently than others ?
While you may be correct that the 5* over 4* additional bump up is lower in certain arenas than others^^, it still exists in all of those arenas - in no arena does a 5* award the same points as 4* of the same pi.
^ If for no other reason than for the longer cool down timers.
^^ I have not looked to see if that is the case in the past and, if true, it is clearly not by enough to be noticeable unless you are looking for it.
This has come up before, but because you can't you use 6-Stars in many Arenas, it's worth bringing up again: The Featured 5-Star Arena has a Custom Point curve for 5 and 6-Star Champions. They get more there than they would in a normal Arena. These are the points you should be getting.
For those reporting that they are getting more, can you confirm that you're seeing this in the Gold Arena?
Why is the cool down so much longer if the “normal” point curve is closer to the same?
