What is the definition of Expected Handicap Removal?

"Expected handicap removal" is a term that humorously describes the process of removing obstacles or disadvantages that someone might have faced in preparation for something, only to find out those obstacles are now just sitting ducks waiting to be exploited by the other team. Think of it as a cosmic joke where you've prepared for a marathon by running a 10-mile race, only to have the finish line vanish like magic at the last stretch.
