Saddened, but not surprised.
In any event-driven organization, doing things "X days after an event" is 
much more expensive in terms of manpower & memory than just doing it at 
once; if someone is willing to cut corners in other places, it's not 
surprising that they would cut them here too.

I don't see the logic in your concluding remark, however.
The waiting period is obviously a compromise between the wishes of the two 
parties.
Having a case where the compromise enshrined in the UDRP was not enacted 
does not seem to me to have much bearing on whether the UDRP itself is fair 
or not.
