question about code "=" #39

I always has one doubt for the code "=", if the query is an exact match of intron chain, but the last exon is longer than the reference, why is the query not an alternative splice.

I am late for this, but the idea is to address the possible extension on the end sites. So it does consider Alternative Splicing, as long as all other intron junctions are matching. There is something about it in the documentation
