It could well be that the caption-generating uses certain resources not easily available in playout so they don’t want to bother for the others.
Remember that BBC SD channels are now downscaled from HD - so, to ensure HD viewers are not seeing the caption erroneously, the caption has to be inserted “downstream” of the normal playout. Potentially even using a temporary additional SD playout chain that they wouldn’t normally have to bother with.
