Because you're playing in a free tournament, and a free robot needs 1 more total point to bid a minor suit game.

A known problem with robots. Where human agreeing "forcing to 3NT" means you are going to play any game, for bots it means going to play a game or 4 of a minor. I try to prevent bidding for of a minor in forcing situations when playing with bots.

That's a lesson learnt by me today. I will remember to bid 5c next time.
