Only they and their coach must understand that strange decision. If they knew the future, I doubt that they would have withdrawn. Anyway, it's water under the bridge. If they have to WD from worlds this year, they will still have two years to reestablish themselves, plus they will be the reigning Olympic silver medallists in 2018. All this, assuming that Klimov's injury gets the right diagnosis and the right treatment. Their long term goals are still for 2018 and beyond, I am sure.
Ack. Doesn't sound good. I wonder if the alternates are also training and ready to sub if needed.
