More importantly, was Poland kicked out?

Unfortunately, only the suspension was extended, although the Polish Curling Association stands that in 5 years curling will stop existing because all the ice rinks will have to be closed due to global warming and energy crisis.

WCF wants to have really hard evidence, which means either the court decision about the liquidation of PCA or the opinion of the Polish NOC, which doesn't really seem to care :/

Is this permanent or only because of COVID-19?

I believe this had to do with qualification complications due to Covid-19.

Italian Federation won an appeal against Curling Federation, so it should be a 13 teams tournament.

 

For have a better format, WCF decide to improve the WC to 14 teams

      There will be specialized double sculls...just not for an NOC if it is entering singles specialists.   Either enter 2 singles specialists, or 1 XD specialist pair.   But they can in theory compete in both events, I guess, if they qualify...our top M, I think, does both.   But there are 17M, 17W, and 30 Pairs allotted in the quota, so I don't think the intent is that every singles entry will be in doubles.   (Perhaps this gets to fall in line with Weightlifting, where due to max entry quota, an NOC can't enter in every event, even if they have the best athletes...here, unless you have a pair who qualifies in both.)

      I read the Olympic qualification documents for weightlifting. A country can have the opportunity to send a maximum of 4 athletes in one gender, but the conditions are very strict.
