Agreed. Surely count the strokes on the winner before the weighed in announcement and call an inquiry and make decision there and then, just as would happen for interference, etc.
It’s not difficult, they just either don’t take it seriously enough OR don’t want to draw attention to whip misuse and would rather deal with it relatively ‘under the radar’.
