LG - What's your take on the DJR skid block saga?

This article above doesn't allege of machining, as per the previous articles re the side skirts - but I take that it's formed part of why they were DSQ'd?
That they were more than just sanded with 180 grit on a block?

I think it sounded like a bit of a witch hunt and they aren't the only team doing it.

I would expect DJR have some payback to give someone.
