ICLR 2026 oral with 2 rejects, 1 borderline reject

https://openreview.net/forum?id=BlSH7gNQSq

I’m just surprised that a paper with 2 rejects and 1 borderline reject (out of 4 scores) would end up being an oral. The AC says:

Initial ratings came as 8/4/2/2. While we cannot be sure how reviewers may have updated their scores, I’d expect a final score above 6.

Considering most reviewers do not update their scores, this is a very odd statement.
