I agree that that is a difficult question, however, in my mind the main defect is the fact that a shorter match can be more important than a longer one.

>>However, the tournament format of Monte Carlo 2022 does not comply with this. Wilcox Snellings defeated Zdenek Zizka in the main bracket winning a 17 point match. Later Snellings was defeated and met Zizka again in the second chance bracket: this time Zizka won, and this latter victory in an 11 point match was more important than Snelling’s victory in the 17 pointer. I could feel comfortable with the fact that a latter match is more important than an earlier one, but it should be at least of the same length.<<
