They considered the situation and judged that playing on was an acceptable
decision. It wasn't even appealed.

How can it be bogus? What's the actual rule you're quoting here? Is it not
acceptable to deviate from them when there are good reasons to do so?

Maybe precedent is different, that doesn't make this decision invalid. Consider
each situation on its own merits, and that was done here.
