Only a year or three too late to profit off of the 'easy' (relatively, of course) medals

FIS has posted their quota simulation lists.

How does that list work? For example Brazil is only listed as having 1 female cross-country quota, which is incorrect, while Portugal, Lebanon and Haiti are on the list as well, which is just not going to happen..

 

Edit: the other one shows two for Brazil.

And looking at the eligibility, as of right now @brunamoura is the only Brazilian eligible for both the sprint and distance events, huh. I was convinced that the already qualified Eduarda Ribera was as well.
