It's not contradictory at all. A large chunk of the block trade was already reported (confirmed) in the daily gross (T+1) reporting. For there not to have been a corresponding increase in the net short reporting (T+4) means there had to have been other short positions closed-out to offset by at least that amount during the intervening period.
If you are suggesting that the initial gross shorts were never part of the block trade, then you are ignoring the fact that the block trade went through (was counted) on the same day as the gross shorts. It's not mathematically possibile to include both on the same trading day, given the reported total trading volumes for 3 Oct.
Honestly, FFS, please THINK before post knee-jerk responses. You've already apologised once today to another member for doing that.
