.Not Olympics oath Chris it is in fact BWF rules and it covers all you said it didn't.
4.5 not using one’s best efforts to win a match (note it does not say tournament)
4.16 conducting oneself in a manner that is clearly abusive or detrimental to the sport
Well, BWF has never disqualified players/teams in the past when match-fixing was so obvious - When one player/pair gave walkover to teammates, and/or when one team lose to another on purpose.
We can remember how KOR manuplitated their advancement at the Thomas Cup fixture some years ago.
