I count several layers of backup. Bring on those energetic burglars.
No argument on the appeals process. But given that inconsistency in rules enforcement at Worlds is anything but new, this is a reasonable concern for the year. Fortunately the real showdown this year will likely be at such a high level and within such a small and professionally inter-related group of teams that they'll be able to cross-check. (Certainly JVN must be well versed in navigating through the RI system.)
