I don't think there is a current policy about that.
The issue isn't that 25% of your team gets hurt the week of Worlds. The issue is more for teams who get their bids in November and then are "locked in" with their rosters for several months until Worlds. People quit or can't pay, people get injured, etc. Teams change over that period of time - especially in International.
Is that an exception to the norm? I believe most worlds team due to injury/non payment may fluctuate 2 -5 athletes depending on the team size throughout the course of the season. Any more than that seems to be more a rarity than a norm.
