@jonah You effectively changed the VPN client criteria such that a VPN can have no killswitch what so ever on macOS, iOS and Windows and still qualify with the minimum criteria. (See [What should we require of VPN providers on macOS? - #60 by Overall-Bet3743](https://discuss.privacyguides.net/t/what-should-we-require-of-vpn-providers-on-macos/36175/60))

This decision has been rushed, and does not represent the opinion of most of the community.

This is NOT a clarification, in fact even @ph00lt0 rightfully pointed an issue, saying it was vague, and you just passed trough. (Yes, it was ultimately approved by two teams members, but both stated objections)
