There's a difference IMO between holding off matches to let teams finish inspection and not scheduling matches on Thursday. How often has everyone passed inspection by Thursday at 2 or 3 PM or so?
I'd rather reward teams that screwed up and "punish" those that didn't (with more practice time) than have any teams not able to compete who worked hard to come and do so. The teams that came ready should be content knowing that they were prepared, then help out everyone else.
