One theory is that the decision is informed by a recent ruling in the playing card game in which the competitor celebrated early, dropping their headphones on the game board and earning them a game loss. That example was more debatable since the match wasn't technically over and since the headset disrupted the game board (using physical cards).
It's less ambiguous with Firestar's case, and regardless, we shouldn't have to wonder or guess what happened. Talk about your deafening silence from Play! Pokémon.
