You couldn't think of going 41.5 a round earlier, ?  

 

They'd have made short work of the Brits and might even have challenged for gold if the Dutch made a small mistake  

It’s strange because we came so close to the Dutch at the world champs last year, and won in 2022, so it’s a bit disappointing but I’m sure they will be happy to medal

The first false start was made by Japan. and the rules have to be changed.

Correct but at the same time I don't see why the rules need to be changed.

Which seems fine to me. One false start can be understood and is forgiveablle given the nature of what's at stake but if the same team does it twice then they should get disqualified. This case was unusual because you don't normally see both teams infringe the rules but at least neither ended up with an advantage gifted by their opponents.
