Do tech 2 BPOs exist for all tech 2 items? Or just some?

Maybe there are tech 2 items that were created after invention was introduced.

I know there's no tech 3 BPOs and the only way to make tech 3 stuff is through invention.

There were lots of items added after the end of the T2 lottery. Rigs and Jump freighters just for starters.
Technically invention is used to get T2 BPCs and reverse engineering is used to get T3 BPCs.

Plus, nobody but CCP knows what or how many T2 BPO were given out in the lottery, or how many have been destroyed, or how many sit on inactive or closed accounts, or how many have been impounded by CCP.

Really, just pretend they never existed. I've earned many billions without ever owning or wanting a T2 BPO.

That's not compleatly true.

The lottery was set with a specific number of prints in it to be give out, what triggered them, who got them, those are probably equally trackable, for example i once didnt get to the agent in time to pick up a t2 bpo--at the end of the lottery system, same agent offered me the same print. This would have been impossible, had it not been tracked that that print, meant for me, didnt make it out.

I believe they released the actual numbers of all the prints put in the lottery system (was like 50 for ships, 100 for mods, 200 for drones, and 500 for ammo) ...

NOW, how many of those are out there now? WE may never know, and CCP will NEVER tell (because they would be giving intel out, bad bad), but trust me, CCP knows.

...

but there are no more t2 bpos since invention started--so what ever patch that was--any new t2 mod/rig/ship after that will not have a bpo. ever.
