This is sketchy

The issue with handicap and 9x9 being exploited on bots is known (as was pointed out).

It only started to be exploited relatively recently.

It needs a solution in the ranking system about the value of 9x9 stones.

This will likely not be a fast thing: changing the ranking system needs care.

In the mean time please report users that exploit it. That will be dealt with.
