Why don the counts shown in the Batch Log and Activity Log for a Batch Reserve match the amount of numbers reserved?

Most MGI messages sent to SMS/800 accept a single toll-free number. However, the MGI message sent to SMS/800 for a reserve allows up to 10 numbers to be specified. Therefore, the number of messages sent will always be the total amount of numbers reserved divided by 10. For example, a reserve of up to 10 numbers will show a single transaction sent to SMS/800, between 11 and 20 will show 2 transactions, etc. When the number list contains patterns this gets a bit trickier. Each pattern has to go in its own message; it cannot be combined with specific numbers. So as 8MS goes through a number list, each time a pattern is found it is sent by itself. After that pattern is sent up, numbers are again grouped into sets of 10 until the next pattern is hit or the end of the list is reached.
