In my opinion, wherever it's not friendly, there is a reason, and it's to avoid ambiguity in the spelling of the chord. However, I'm not surprised when someone find this difficult. Understanding and then spelling exotic chords is not easy.

I see you are new here, and Welcome. There is a Wishlist forum for BIAB (look left), and they welcome suggestions. They have implemented several of mine over the years, so they do listen to users.

Don't forget about the Chord Builder function (right-click in the Chordsheet) where you can see the supported chord types for BIAB. Often you may find the one you are looking for, and see how they spelled it.
