That'd be nice, but PA team is less likely to have the time to code a battlecalc to the extent that outside sources do. Third party coders do a much better job because they've only got that to focus on, they have more funcationality and they're now pretty easy to copy/paste data into. The presentation, with various skins, makes them look nice too.
And they're kept updated.

Can't PA team find an agreement with one of the current Bcalc if they don't have the time/resource to developp their own ?

Indeed, outsourcing the code to a third party who can then stuff it into the actual game would be nice, but there are legal issues and other reasons for it (if there was just the one in-game, then external sources wouldnt be used as much).
Perhaps.
