1) The Swiss system should not be used in competitions where the criterion for determining the winner is FAIRNESS. We can discuss this for a long time...

So, you think that FIDE uses an unfair system in chess tournaments at all levels?

In my opinion, they should have simply stated from the beginning which template would be used in each round. So that people would know what to expect and not complain during the process.

I've already been convinced of this, and I even agree. It's interesting to know if it's really possible to find templates that would satisfy all participants. I don't think so. Maybe next time we should choose the templates by voting and distribute them randomly?

I admit that I went too far with the 200%, the chaos, and the all-random approach, but I still think that this system is very good for selection.
