This article said all there needs to be said, besides how each trick needs a potential score like figure skating, so it's actually done right.

I’m more than disappointed in all of scoring. There needs to be a major overhaul to the sytem.

Pare was not dqd. He was marked for unintentional contact Ranked As Last. He finished 16th on the result. If he was dqd he wouldn't get a result.

A competitor who receives a RAL sanction will be ranked as last in their heat and

You don't get punished for unintentional contact, so something doesn't add up

When there is an Unintentional action, accidental interference, and the consequence are severe ie. Eguibar getting taken out, this is the call based on the rule. Im not saying that's the call I would have made, but the call aligns with the rule. If he was dq he wouldn't be 16th.
