I guess the organizer had to find a solution, and if all freedivers agrees to it, then no problem for the result of the comp. But not for the ranking list.

Is this an opinion or an AIDA rule? It makes more sense to me that the freedivers who complete their dive get a ranking. Making something unfair for everybody doesn't equal making it fair. Easy for me to say as I completed my dive, but I would say the same if I had been cancelled.
( Also it wasn't half the dives. The majority of athletes did complete their performances. )
