bugreport.apple.com is your friend (well, it'll be all of our friends again once they fix the damn redirect loop).  You'll need to get an Apple developer account in order to file bugs.  (Note: the more duplicates a bug has, the more attention is paid to it.)

The spec says

	The reference number is generated by the capture device and is the same across each subframe of an A-MPDU. Since the capture device might be capable of capturing multiple channels or data from multiple (concurrent) captures could be merged, the reference number is not guaranteed to be unique across different channels. As a result, applications should use the channel information together with the reference number to identify the subframes belonging to the same A-MPDU.

So are you saying that it increments for each *subframe* in macOS?
