I honestly think that the whole controversy is just related to trying to gain a competitive advantage. Even if the other teams don’t care if Canada does it it’s worth complaining because it throws Canada off their game.
And the way that the media and bot controlled social media sites have picked up on this is absolutely wild. Reddit threads are getting tens of thousands of views and comments from people who don’t know anything about curling but have declared a lifelong hatred for Canada and Alberta. It’s wild. Given the prevalence of misinformation and bot farms even the stupidest little controversies get blown out of proportion.
If this were actual cheating that was putting the legitimacy of curling in question, the other teams would have appealed the results or filed a protest.
