Jiu-Jitsu (AJP)
Verdict

Why people argue about this
People often assume that in AJP Jiu-Jitsu, points are given more importance than submissions, leading to arguments about which decision criteria are most crucial for winning matches. However, the official verdict clarifies that scoring decisions indeed prioritize submission over points and other factors, highlighting how understanding the specific hierarchy can resolve these misunderstandings.
