I have it from direct good sources that World Taekwondo in its infinite wisdom has published rankings named "June 2024 Used for Paris 2024 Seeding" which will in fact NOT be used for the seeding because they contain some miscomputations in the automated system used to refresh rankings. You can spot the incosistencies by clicking on a given athlete page and search from the dropdown menu the month of June 2024, you will notice some of the rankings differ from those published under "June 2024 Used for Paris 2024 Seeding". And between the two the correct ones are the ones shown in the athlete pages.
I have recomputed the seeds for the categories with Italians and I am 95% confident they will be used for the actual draw.
This is actually better for Dell'Aquila which will avoid facing a first match with a fighter that already had their first fight, which in most people's opinion is a bit of a disadvantage.

Here the only difference from the rankings published above is BUR and AUS flip-flopping positions
Here Souza and Guo exchange positions (quite relevant for the bracket) and El-Bouchti is confirmed to be #17 unless WT pulls something funny at the last moment. The big loser is Panipak which will fight her first round against a top 6 opponent who will also have the benefit to have a previous fight with a sparring partner from Timor-Leste to warm up.
Direttore tecnico Rinaldi andrebbe radiato dalla FIS, senza stare ad aspettare che la federazione italiana faccia qualcosa. Le accuse contro di lui (a cui credo al 100%) sono gravissime. Barare alle Olimpiadi, per coprire errori dovuti alla propria incompetenza. E' una vergogna per i nostri colori questa situazione. Che imbarazzo.
Abbiamo vinto 6 partite su 6 tutte per meriti nostri in un torneo dove sta vincendo chi sbaglia di meno. Noi non solo stiamo sbagliando poco ma tatticamente siamo stati in controllo di tutte le partite, sia che gli avversari stessere giocando con percentuali alte sia che stessero sbagliando. Veramente una costanza di rendimento in un contesto volatile che impressiona. Adesso cerchiamo di perderne uno o due per non arrivare in semifinale imbattuti per favore.
