It is unfair because after the LP she very likely would be 2nd in TEB (for her there was really noone to lose silver because all skaters between her and Gracie are known for rather weak LPs, and she is opposite throughout her whole career). Two silvers would easily grant her place in the final. I think it is ridiculous that World Champion and last year GP Final champion loses her spot because of the circumstances that have nothing to do with her performances.
I think it's unfair Liza did not have a chance to redeem herself in the free, but you shouldn't base your reasoning on why she should make the GPF on what would most likely have happened. No one truly knows what would have happened, and although it is unfair, it is actually her performances that cost her the spot. Having the world and GPF titles doesn't make her case any more fair or unfair, imo, though I truly wish she could make it.
