W2UP's presumption is incorrect.

This rule states that no one should use the information from those or any
other databases to make changes to the contest log after the contest has
ended.

It goes no further than that.

There is no restriction on uploading to LotW or any other system and such
would be clearly beyond the scope of authority of the CQWW.

73,

(this is my personal interpretation of the new rule; not an official
statement - although I suspect they would be in alignment)
