A question about : Split Parents and Working Family Tax Entitlements

I don't understand why, in this country, if two parents share equal custody of their children only ONE can claim Working Family Tax and only ONE can be named primary carer. That aside:-

If one parent is claiming Working Family Tax but NOT the childcare element, can the other parent claim the childcare element?

Thanks so much in advance for any advice.
