Maybe the tool doesn't support that.

Or maybe Tim didn't care about story points, he knew his worth, and he felt that if the company wanted to fire him on such an arbitrary metric, it wasn't a company worth working for anyways. In the end, he did well because he kept his job and the company dropped an inappropriate metric.
