LCWRA/backdated sick note

What authority does DWP have for refusing to accept a backdated sick note? The GP issued a backdated sick note covering the period 4/8/21 - 23/10/22. The claim has been treated as LCWRA (no obligations set) and WCA successful from 23/9/22. DWP seem to want to avoid paying out a lot of money having delayed sending out the WCA questionnaire and then the IHAS delaying organising a telephone assessment. PIP in payment - lower rate care (11 points), 12 points for mobility covering the same period and still in payment now.
