I read Josh and his film crew didn't ask or say anything about their plans before the race. Lael did and most of the debate was had before the race, when they announced it.
Josh's crew drove a van to meet him in some spots on the route. Lael's crew were on e-bikes riding back and forth on the race route, so they could've scouted the trail ahead and tell how it'll be.

so they could've scouted the trail ahead and tell how it'll be.
Josh's crew could've done that with the van too so I see no difference between them other than the fact that Lael's crew were made to adhere to a bunch of requests like tracking whereas no one gave a shit about Josh's filming.

So, "logically", people are more suspicious and outraged about the crew who were upfront and transparent about their plans.

This is exactly what I mean. Everything is based on trust in these races, and we raise our suspicion when someone voluntarily makes an effort to demystify their actions. On the other hand, we assume others have the highest integrity because they didn't say anything. Wow.

Yep, I've been saying this in my circles for a while. And that's how we know that Lael was picked on, regardless of whether she violated the rules or not.
