Reason:

They did such a good job protecting their mental health, they abstained from the debate... If they should have done so, was not proven.

Reason:

Arguments: "no need" is a valid argument, it simply lacked evidence. However, PRO did not refute it, so the baseless assertion counts as a fact.

Conduct: CON did not forfeit.

Reason:

Arguments tied because neither side offered them. I would still like to see the side who did not forfeit make arguments in these debates, but I understand the opportunity cost of doing so.

Conduct points to RM for not forfeiting
