Default RE: turbine reverse thrust

Not entirely correct on the thrust reversers using only By-Pass air. On Gulfstream IV and Hawker 800 that I Fly, The thrust reversers are the "Clam Shell" reverser type. All of the exhaust, HP and LP air, is redirected by the reversers.
But I still do not know why the AMA does not allow Thrust Reversers
