^^ Yes, I think Luba/Dylan are definitely the most accomplished pair NOT to make it out of their country to the Olympics this year. To have been 6th and 7th at Worlds the past 2 years, in such very competitive fields, was a big deal IMO. Plus they also had GP medals and 4CCs bronze last year. Although they were always a bit vulnerable due to side-by-side jump inconsistency, I still didn't see this coming. After Worlds last year, I thought things would only improve; there was no reason to think otherwise. I still wonder if there was an undisclosed injury this summer/fall, as well as the more recent one.
To have an accident like Dylan did, just before Nationals, is such horrible timing ... I can't imagine how frustrated they are right now. That, alone, could possibly explain any tensions at this time.
