I'm on a happy ban, but?

Why aren't my happy points increasing even though I'm on a happy ban? I'm supposed to be holding back on gacha pulls, and I'm even refraining from trades. It's a problem every year. With the anniversary coming up, this is serious... February anniversary, Valentine's Day March White Day April Cherry Blossoms ...Mermaid. Festival. Higanbana, Beast, Wings, Anyway, these motifs that I have to endure all year round, why?! My greed, please quiet down.
