They cowrote an earlier draft with Torres, and then, after removing Torres because of complaints, posted a later draft. There doesn’t even seem to be any evidence here that they were collaborating with Torres on this after Torres’ ban (though there might exist evidence I am unaware of). I think it would have been better to disclose that Torres used to be involved, but I think it would have been overly draconian to ban the post (even more so the poster) over earlier input from someone banned. EA did a good job here because they didn’t ban the authors.
