Hmmm, I thought you realized that CAS mentioned "intentional" in the end not because of 10.2.3, since you called it "unnecessary and gratuitous".

You should add Paragraph 140 to your notes: “… the ADRV must be deemed to be intentional.”
Indeed, I know, “… the ADRV must be deemed to be intentional.”; must, not may, or could, or etc. Also there is no 10.2.3. in 140.
You need to add Paragraph 139 to your notes.
Paragraph 139 explicitly refers to 10.2.1. Paragraph 140 is linked to Paragraph 139 by starting with "Accordingly ...". Article 10.2.1 is explicitly subject to 10.2.3.
"Deeming ... intentional", can only be understood in the context of Article 10.2, as if they said "for the limited and sole purpose of deciding the length of the sanction, we will pretend it was intentional, as we are allowed to by the Code, and not required to do more, and as the athlete did not establish otherwise, and apply the 4 year sanction". Although Article 10.2.3 describes the intended meaning of "intentional", referring to athlete conduct, this is all part of the "pretend", as there is no showing, and no burden to show, that the athlete engaged in such conduct, and whether, in the real world, this meaning was met.
Note that paragraph 139 does not say the "excuse" is "absurd" or otherwise rule on "credibility". But it does say her argument falls short of the required burden, lacking "sufficient objective evidence", and also describes Houlihan as a "credible witness". Being able to test the actual burrito would provide such objective evidence, and enable an argument to succeed on the balance of probability, in contrast to the low probability of the wrong kind of edible intact boar parts in the US and Canadian commercial pork market.

The "pretending" is all yours, not CAS. They said none of what you fancifully posed. Their position might be more accurately constructed as being like catching a person with their hand in the till; the presumption is they are intending to steal unless they can show otherwise. Even though the person with their hand in the till may show no legitimate excuse you will continue to argue their innocence - without evidence, only your invented "possibilities". Your denial never ends.
If Getzman was able to show his innocence, the system is not "broken" - it worked. So tell me how many other athletes do you know for a fact were innocent but unable to prove it? You can't. You would only be guessing.
The finding by CAS in the Houlihan case that the violation was intentional is not "gratuitous"; it is necessary, since once the defence of accidental contamination is rejected the violation can only be intentional. Houlihan was unable to show otherwise. CAS is not saying the violation may be attributable to an accidental cause that hasn't been identified while the violation nonetheless still stands; it is maintaining the principle that the athlete is responsible for any banned substance found in their body, and if they are unable to show they were not at fault or negligent they must be presumed to know how it got there - and it was therefore the result of an "intentional" act. CAS does not use the term casually, or as a "pretense" or in contradiction of how the term is generally understood; it is a Court and states only what is necessary and what it is permitted to say. But it doesn't suit you to understand that.
Not more accurately presented re the thief.
This is not a strict liability offence and thus has is not comparable.
With Getzmann, the system is still broken, three ways. Despite proving himself innocent:
1) He suffered a suspension of more than 1 year, which can never be made whole
2) He spent more than 10,000 Euros of his father's money, which will not be paid back, for legal fees and scientific testing at a time when he became effectively unemployed, no longer earning an income
3) WADA still considers the proven innocent Getzmann guilty of two rule violations; the next no-fault violation risks an 8 years to life ban, unless good fortune and serendipity smile on him again.
Despite typing words in a box, you failed to address the scenario in front of you. How would the system work if Getzmann didn't have that last painkiller to test? Your inability to provide an adequate response with merit only reinforces that the system is broken. The answer is that it would play out exactly like Houlihan's case, with a list of improbable things that need to happen in order for his medicine to be contaminated, and the non-expert public conflating probabilities, and falling for this prosecutor's fallacy because the likelihood of contaminated medicine is much much less than 50%, therefore his is most probably guilty, despite his innocence being a given in this scenario. The system is broken.
I know for a fact that Tygart has processed 27 No fault cases since 2015, each time complaining that the WADA Code is broken. I know for a fact that many Kenyan farmers don't practice castration of their boars, and Kenyans have had 49 positives for Nandrolone between 2004 and Aug. 1, 2018. Do Kenyans have money to pay legal fees and scientific tests like Getzmann's father? There are 68 languages spoken in Kenya -- I wonder if Kenyans are charged in their native tongue, and have access to the Code in their native language, and will be tried in their native tongue. Having to navigate such a process in English or French probably puts many rural Kenyans at a big disadvantage.
Contrary to your claims otherwise, it is not required to find "intentional" under 10.2.1.1 to impose the 4-year ban. It is sufficient to find the probability of the double negative: the Athlete failed to establish, on the balance of probability, not intentional. Deeming it intentional, under Article 10.2, adds no value.
And you've regressed again to re-explaining your simple ideas about how the system works, which does not rebut that the way it works is broken. The principle of "strict liability" is in part why it is broken, as it convicts innocent athletes unable to prove their innocence. Presuming something doesn't make it real. It makes it "pretend".

LOL. No, no and no. There was no pretending, no "as if" - you are making this all up, using your words. Also, CAS and WADA are evidently part of the real world.
Banned for intentional doping with nandro. 4 year ban. Case closed. Yes I have read 2.1, 2.2, 10.2 with comments, and the CAS decision.
Oh wait. I forgot, I need to (but you of course don't and won't) use the exact wording from CAS to avoid getting trolled again. Fine, I look it up again. Here you go.
CAS:
WADA Rule 2.1 and 2.2, fresh from the current code:
And the prohibited substance was nandrolone.
Again, CAS (5 + 7):
You are welcome.
Now I have heard everything. The opposite is true of course: testing the actual burrito would prove that her claim is wrong.
1. Getzman could have spent much of his father's money defending himself even if the onus was reversed and it was the anti-doping officials who were seeking to establish fault rather than that he was trying to exonerate himself. His problem - as it would be with any doper - is a failed test. That evidence doesn't go away simply by arguing that doping should not be a strict liability offence.
2. So you know for a fact that Tygart has processed 27 no-fault cases since 2015? How about he only claims that they are no fault? How many of those athletes have actually been proven innocent rather than merely supposed innocent in the eyes of Mr Tygart? I'm sure you can list them if they were indeed shown to be innocent.
3. If an athlete fails to show that the offence is not intentional on the balance of probability then by that measure, of the balance of probability - and by that failure to show otherwise - it is necessarily intentional. Civil courts typically come to decisions based on what is probable; this is no different. This is not the criminal standard of proof beyond reasonable doubt or any other more demanding standard.
4. The system is not "broken" because it convicts athletes unable to show their innocence; that claim presumes they are in fact innocent - you don't know that. You merely think they must be. Houlihan must be one of the worst examples to try to argue that. A positive test is "a smoking gun"; it is for the athlete to show that while being caught holding the gun they aren't the one who fired it at the body on the ground. The most reasonable assumption of a confirmed finding of a banned substance in an athlete is that the athlete knows how it got there. The next most reasonable assumption is that the athlete put it there. If they didn't they need to plausibly show how else it got there.
5. You "know for a fact" that Kenyan farmers don't practise castration of their boars - so this must account for the nandrolone positives recorded there? What a long bow you have drawn. What I also know for a fact is that doping has officially been identified as endemic in Kenya and that this is more likely to account for the prevalence of nandrolone busts than athletes eating pigs testicles.

If you want the exact word, the CAS “presumes” intent. In this case, “pretend” is an accurate synonym.
WADA created an artificial world where an athlete can be banned for violating rules without personal “knowledge” or “intent”.
In that artificial world, for the sole purpose of 10.2, the unasked question of “intent” is disregarded and “presumed” intentional unless established “not intentional”.
Presuming something or deeming something doesn’t make it real.
Fully agree. Not replicated in any other version of jurisprudence in the West since 1945.

Not at all. Presume means more than assume and a lot more than pretend.
Wait - I looked it up for you ("presumed synonym"):
presume [prəˈz(y)o͞om]
VERB
presumed (past tense) · presumed (past participle)
1. suppose that something is the case on the basis of probability.
2. be audacious enough to do something.
2. does not apply here.
1 fits nicely imho. Sounds very similar to "the standard of proof shall be by balance of probability", see article 92 of the CAS decision.

Originally you did not ask a question, but made a false claim. Thereafter, you went into obfuscation and deflection mode, along with more false claims. Let's see how long you keep going.
1) Are you arguing that it’s not just “strict liability” that breaks the system? Good point. Getzmann proved himself innocent, and he was still punished 3 ways. The problem WADA is trying to solve doesn’t include punishing athletes who take WADA legal medicine with reasonable diligence, or athletes who order takeout from domestic vendors or restaurants.
2) USADA is a “court”, as much as the CAS. All 27 were proven innocent within the WADA Code, and for years, Tygart has been claiming the system is broken because athletes can be railroaded to 4-year sanctions and treated as cheats.
3) 10.2.1.1. only evaluates whether “not intentional” is established. The opposite is “not intentional” is “not established”. This is not necessarily “intentional”. Equating the two is artificial, and risks condemning innocent athletes. The standard here isn’t civil, or criminal, but basic English and logic.
4) The system is broken unless it protects clean athletes like Getzmann, even if he had consumed his last painkiller. I did not presume his innocence, but he proved it. That doesn’t change if he takes all of his medicine. Others won’t be so lucky because the system is broken.
5) Unless all 49 cases are genuine intentional exogenous doping, the system is broken. What you claim to know as fact is your imagination. What you claim as more likely is also your imagination.
