You forgot the part "to eradicate GM, trainers, and officials who abuse their position". You are welcome.

In case it was not clear the 2 years ban with "further analysis" is just fide hypocrisy, the so called director of chess development makes it clear he does not want trans women in the women tournaments. What a surprise.
From
@nigelshortchess
FB. I agree that we should not waste time on trans women in chess. Simply let us play as the women we are.
Let's focus on more important issues, like "a prominent English GM" allegedly sexually assaulting an 11-yo girl & threatening her with a slap suit.

Still waiting for someone to explain to me the value of ROI (Regan) and Strength (chesscom) to detect long and smart cheating runs. Elo increases by cheating, so their models expect a (moves) performance from a Elo which is itself a corrupted data. 🤷🏼♀️ Anybody ?
My views on chesscom's report.🧵
We have worked a bit with another of the best French women's chess players since chesscom's report.
TLDR;
It is immeasurably better than what I presented in my video.
