Nutrigold no longer sells Synapsa and sells an unspecified 15% bacoside extract. Why? And where to get Bacopa?

What Nutrigold sells on Amazon as 500mg Bacopa [whole plant] with 320mg Synapsa standardized to 55% bacoside, is in fact 400mg of [leaf] 15% bacoside.

What was the problem with Synapsa? How does the new one compare? Where to get Bacopa that's actually closer to the dosages of the studies?

Synapsa has been backordered from PLT for a while. Nutrigold likely does not want to deal with supply chain issues like this going forward, so they changed their source. They already did this once. It used to be a different extract than Synapsa called BacoMind. Then they moved to Synapsa. Now they seem to be moving to a non-patented extract. The problem is that people expect consistency, and if you keep changing the extract used in your product, but don't make that clear, people will get different effects from one to the other.
