Question: if Kazakhstan forfeits their second spot because of no eligible skater. Does another spot open at Nebelhorn?
Does Kazakhstan have a second lady? Is there a technical minimum that must be met for the Olympics like worlds has?
Yes, another spot will open up at Nebelhorn (so 7 spots instead of 6).
And yes, there are technical minimums for the Olympics and they're the same as the ones needed for 4CCs and Euros (lower than Worlds). Unlike TES minimums that are good for 2 years to compete at ISU championships though, the minimum score needs to be achieved during the Olympic season.
Not sure if there's another woman from Kazakhstan who can get the TES minimums. There was one that competed at the Asian Games and Junior Worlds I believe.
