Why is reallocating an unused quota bullshit?

You get quotas in Olympics for free is something that should not be done. It's better to allocate the quota to deserving candidates that this universality bullshit...

Else remove the qualification stages altogether.

As far as I see, the Korean was simply next in line in the APB rankings, through which the Frenchman got his quota. So, the quota got allocated to the next deserving athlete and it has quite literally 0% to do with universality.

Rio website confirms that Morocco lost quotas in men's light welterweight and men's middleweight. Dival Malonga got it in men's light welter while the other one hasn't been reallocated apparently (or is simply missing from the website)...

[dcro 10,210]

According to this, also got it in middleweight. So, Rio 2016 website is just slow.
