why lag comp (and not kb) is ruining ultrabullet

IF you have KB, the other person dosent, you have a advantage. If both players don’t have KB it’ll be fair. Second one is easier. Simple as that.
Although I admit, I haven’t played ultra lately.

Plus ultra is bad. It not only makes you worse at the longer time controls (the actual skilful ones), but it’s uses a lot more data than other time controls. I’m guessing anyway.
Also I want to point out the fact he played 2/5 games, he was playing new beginners, and 1/5 games, he was playing a 1400, only 2 games he played 200 rating above him, while the others were ~300 lower than him
there was still nothing posted here disputing the unfairness shown in vid, there wasn't written why i should get disadv like that in videos, there wasn't any justification of that, there wasn't written why i should be ok with playing like that. and that's fine, only proves me right.
Lag compensation is the only reason I was able to play a bullet titled arena with ~750 ping. Lichess is not going to remove it. And stop saying that we have no idea what we're talking about, I play ultrabullet and hyperbullet too. It's not the user's fault if they live far away from France. If you're willing to pay for a server in every continent, lichess would be happy to remove lag comp.
and why should that give me disadvantage? can you come up w actual justification? you most obviously see it's an issue in the vid, you see it's unfair yet you say there's nothing wrong, you cant tell me how me getting disadv is any less of an oppression than they getting disadv. are you biased? you say they shouldnt get disadv. ok now answer to me - why should i?
