Windows 10: Microsoft Family Account - Weekly Activity Report Contradiction

In the weekly activity report for my son, his web browsing report shows a variety of sites visited every day of the past week. They are all legitimate sites, so I have no concerns about his web browsing. However the screen time report states that he was only using his device on Thursday and Sunday, with no time shown against any of the other days of the week. So web browsing reports access occurred every day of the week. Screen time reports access occurred on only two days in the same week. His Microsoft login is only used for the one device, so why the contradiction?
