Spirit of the rules being that the films show that the winner won legitimatly.
As Krup lost the round in question, and as Irish has stated over and over, it really doesn't matter.
In the previous "missing film" situation, for all we know, the winner could have been flying in F3 the entire time.

well just to set you straight, f3 mode wasn't against the rules in the previous bracket, not that anyone seriously believed it was used
be that as it may, i believe that the previous disqualification was on the simple technicality that Spek did not provide all of his films (he had some, not all). No one disputed the winner of that duel, just as no one is disputing the fact that Krup beat IrishOne.
once you start rulef**king people out of a fairly earned win, you open the door for it to happen again and again in the future...throw honour out the window and we see what the competition devolves to...
another tough job for BE and the rules committee i guess
