If a player who has withdrawn has played less than 50% of the games, they are disqualified, and their results are annulled. If a player who has withdrawn has played 50% or more of the games, all results are preserved, and in the games they did not play, they receive technical defeats. We have been playing this way for years.
Why, in that case, were Bubucha's victory over Alihex and Maretti's victory over Sloth_d not annulled?
