Would you DQ everyone who gives a callsign, but does not do it twice?

I would not. And any advantage is certainly not unfair. You choose to  
nil the other op. I can make the exchange from the logged callsign and  
the other parts of the exchange they send. It walks talks and quacks  
like a proper exchange.

Perhaps the sponsor should be asked if the callsign has to be sent  
twice, lest they be DQ'd.

Would you nil the contact if the exchange was made backward?

But seriously, if you want to nil everyone who does not, then have at  
it.
