... Even if athletes know "the rules" that technically, the USFSA can basically do whatever they want, that does not help them plan their season. In an Olympic season, should they be trying to peak near the Grand Prix or near Nationals, if they want to be on the team? That's a huge decision, but the USFSA's random decisionmaking gives athletes no guidance whatsoever.

@DEE2E IMO correct decision was made - the procedures were vetted by USFS athlete committee & USOC, and posted to public. No mystery at all
