Does anyone know why when you win a game by time in a tournament they take away two ELO points? Maybe because it was an opponent with a lower ELO?

If you win on time you wouldn't lose points.

I've heard a recent chess.com glitch in the display but the rating points aren't impacted; you still gain for winning.

it's a bit confusing, I see that if I look at the image it's clear but if I click on that item I see a minus two next to my username and if I access the "information" tab on the right side of the screen it says that I have lost two points.
