Wonder how St. Lucia got away with getting tripartite quotas in both one person dingy events? 

Probably the ISAF picked the two highest ranked in each event? Would make sense... not sure if that is correct.

The rules aren't always very clear (other than it must be a tripartite eligible nation). In 2016 they gave Angola a quota in the laser despite already having one in men's 470. Bolivia also got two shooting tripartite quotas in 2016.

Working to confirm but :SRI awarded wild card in one of the two women's rifle events (presuming 10m air rifle) 

Here is the source: http://www.dailymirror.lk/sports/Tokyo-Games-Tripartite-Commission-‘invites’-shooter-Tehani-Erandi-Egodawela-of-Sri-Lanka-Navy-to-com/322-213009

 

Also mention :SRI has not qualified in artistic gymnastics as of yet.

Guess I was right in the end: FIG is twisting the rules so they can invite :SRI to the Olympics and, at the same time, guarantee that :INA qualifies for the first time in gymnastics. This would also probably explain why Sri Lanka was not offered a tripartite quota in rhythmic gymnastics; FIG was saving this twist until the end so they could be "generous" and give Sri Lanka an invitation in artistic gymnastics instead, despite their gymnast qualifying by her own merits.
