Feedback to be removed when seller wins dispute

Starting May 1, as part of eBay’s ongoing commitment to ensure a fair and safe marketplace for all buyers and sellers, you’ll be protected from feedback and detailed seller ratings on any case filed against you that is resolved in your favor by eBay. 

This seems good for sellers, but it's a two edged sword.

Sellers who lose the case get both a lost dispute strike and bad DSRs.  The double whammy, with almost no way to use sympathy to get them removed.

Losing the case will become more common, as sellers pursue the victory, but fail to understand the decision process.

SNAD disputes seem particularly perilous.

Related, no protection from buyers who neg because seller refuses to pay return shipping.
