Exclude from iCalendar Export all-day "busy" events for rotation day label

Exporting iCalendar data from constituents' LMS calendar view is brilliant — except that, for every school day, the export includes an all-day-long event with that day's name (the "Day label" from the schedule set) that is marked as "busy." As a result, the calendars of constituents who import these files become "busy" every school day for the entire day. Either these day name events should be marked "available" (this would be the ideal) or they should be removed entirely from the export (this would be good enough).

      We never had this issue until this past August. I'm wondering what changed in BB.

      This would be a huge change for our faculty and staff.

      We would like our faculty to add their teaching schedule into Outlook. We are testing the RSS between Blackbaud's calendar "My Calendar" into Outlook and coming across the issue where our Day Labels are coming over as day-long events. Is it possible to exclude the Day Lables in the export? I noticed this idea has been suggested back in 2021, but wanted to see if we could revive this request.
