I don't get the "fair" argument. Would it be unfair if Ding did not blunder the rook? How so?

Presumably the classical world championship should be determined by classical chess games, and this was the last one before the shorter tiebreak games. Ding looked like he would’ve started losing more if there were more classical games, who knows though.

So the argument is some of the rules are unfair?
