Some thoughts:
 * The Joy-Con Men was removed entirely to prevent Etika from receiving negative attention. It never received any rips and was never talked about because it was never technically a team. I wouldn't say that they purposefully tried to make people forget. They didn't remove anything from their source list, only added some sources and replaced a character.
 * Would it have made sense to make Geno feel bad for losing? IMO characters like Geno aren't sore losers.
 * HOBART was definitely a joke at first, but I wouldn't say any of them were treated badly. Some characters have better sources than others. All of the contestants had interesting interviews and personalities.
 * Any complaints about how certain contestants didn't make it as far are reasonable (it's okay to feel disappointed), but it isn't fair to blame anyone for the result. There has to be a winner and a loser. I liked the vibe of MissingNo and Mariya, but I also enjoyed the other contestants you listed. I don't think anyone took those amazing arrangements as a joke.
 * Actually, Mariya Takeuchi, Law & Disorder, and MissingNo will all receive prizes because they are runners-up. All of them are newcomers, and all of the newcomers had a chance to win. All of the newcomers also got amazing arrangements, so there was definitely a point in including them. I think it's great that DJ Prof K won the Another Day after losing in the first round in the first tournament.
 * I disagree that KFAD2 lost its soul. I would say that KFAD2 was much, much bigger than KFAD1, and the interviews, arrangements, and sheer amount of effort that the team put in blew KFAD1 out of the water.
 * Giving all 32 contestants a takeover day is pointless and defeats the entire purpose.
 * I don't think you understand the term "corporate decision". SiIvaGunner is a team of talented artists and musicians who make free and amazing content for literally no cost. They aren't a business, they do it out of passion and love, and they don't owe the fans anything. Seeing them as a corporate entity is seeing them as literally the opposite of what they are. They made an amazing tournament, and DJ Prof K won. Anything else is extra and up to them.
