Question about this 2019 Bowman’s Best Ronald Acuna Jr. auto

I bought the following card on eBay and when I started perusing the checklist it says the ones that are numbered to 50 like this one is are supposed to be Gold Refractors. The Acuna Jr. is obviously not any type of Refractor. I did notice while looking on eBay other base autos are numbered completely randomly (some are /99, some are /100, some are /150, etc.) so did Topps just decide to make the Acuna Jr. /50 the base? I know Topps plays it pretty fast and loose with their checklists and they often make next to no sense as PuddleMonkey can attest so I’m assuming that’s what happened here?
