I believe the TV picks follow what was originally chosen by the broadcasters at the time, even though they're not being played in the blackout window. I agree it's silly, but the broadcasters have paid for a certain number of matches and the league aren't going to start handing out freebies to them.
The whole system of not providing a legal way of broadcasting every match is outdated. For the bigger clubs they is probably hundreds of thousands in the Uk illegally streaming un broadcast matches.
