Maybe it defaults PM to be full volume, and Extract it defaults to partial volume? And maybe you can change that setting?

Maybe you do, who knows? Next time you'll know to calculate this stuff before you brew. Hopefully it'll still be tasty.

Did you boil the extract for the full 60 min or did you do a late addition?

boiled for 20... I was half into the boil when I found out late DME addition would affect IBU

Looks like my OG is higher too 1.064... BS said 1.053.. maybe the higher alcohol will balance the hops?

That could help. Plug that 20 min into BS and see what it says as well. The IBU's won't be as high as shown there. They'll still be up there, but I don't think in the 50's.
