The worst of the storm (hail and thunderstorms) came during the finals matches, which had the least communications problems. It's certainly possible, of course, but I don't see much of a link there.

Anyway, I think this question has to be asked: Why is the Einstein field one that has (generally) not been used at all during the season? Yes, I'm sure it's tested just as much as the other fields if not more, and I understand the appeal of playing the final matches on a pristine, unused field, but I think the benefits of using a tried and tested field outweigh those. If in a future year there are again a lot of communication problems, they could even make it part of the protocol to play the finals on the field that had the fewest such issues during its own matches.
