I prefer to see even a player who tried to win by unsportsmanlike behaviour and
not a person who does not care about the result.

I remember the stupid mistakes of Kramnik against Fritz and it seems that he did
not care about the result(in the better case) or lost on purpose(in the worse
case).

It is no problem to prevent people to earn points by unsportsmanlike behaviour
by better rules so I am not afraid that Adams will win again against Hydra by
similiar behaviour.
