    I don't see why not.

    I saw your idea on Precisely Ideas and added these comments to it:

    *********************************

    I had a look at the description of EPSG:9474 on EPSG.io.

    It seems we can already describe this projection in MapInfo Pro like this:

    "Albers Australian Conic (GDA2020)\p9473", 9, 1028, 7, 132, 0, -36, -18, 0, 0
    or as the bounded projection:

    "Albers Australian Conic (GDA2020) Bounded\p9473", 2009, 1028, 7, 132, 0, -36, -18, 0, 0, 112.85, -43.7, 153.69, -9.86

    Would you be able to help verify if this looks and works correctly?

    I have inserted an image below with a few coordinates in MGA2020 Zone 56 and Australian Albers GDA2020.

    Also, would you prefer just to have the bounded version or both? It seems the EPSG 9473 refers to the bounded projection.

    *********************************

    I can't guarantee that we can get it into the localized builds of v23.2, but we can try.

    I may have gotten the order of the standard parallels wrong in the attempt above:

    "Albers Australian Conic (GDA2020)\p9473", 9, 1028, 7, 132, 0, -18, -36, 0, 0

    and

    "Albers Australian Conic (GDA2020) Bounded\p9473", 2009, 1028, 7, 132, 0, -18, -36, 0, 0, 112.85, -43.7, 153.69, -9.86
