You seem to have addressed another post entirely (I'm not the above poster). What the poster said: "How is it a loophole when Tor Books had been doing the same thing for years?"
That refers to "slates" of nominees", which implies that the books are not nominated individually solely on merits of the contents within, but with some extra promotion or whatever...
... which is exactly what businesses do...
Which would have nothing to do with conspiracy, attacking the contents of the books, statistics of who wins, or even bias on the part of the critic.
"Banana crazypants", what, to observe standard business promotion? What's next, is it outer-space loony-tunes to say the Oscars are an industry circlejerk?
