Canadian Nationals were also exempted in the past and the minutes do compare the Montreal situation to the Worlds and previous Canadian meets. I think if the bulkhead pools are measured periodically and in conformance w/ the jurisdictions sanctioning regulations that should be enough. I believe you when you say that tightening a lane line can make a bulkhead short but for many reasons that should be an extremely rare occurrence. It is possible that the measurement procedure was flawed in those cases or the bulkhead was defective. This is the first time I have heard that the pool was not measured at all either before or after the meet. I believe you when you say that, but I never heard anyone from the meet admit to that.
I thought it was measured before competition as Canada requires.
Worlds will be there in 2014. So FINA thinks they run a good meet.
