Why did Ian Nepomniachtchi get a replay for the castling issue in the 2019 WFRCC vs Wesley So, but Wesley So didn't get a replay for the castling issue in the 2022 WFRCC vs Nepo?

I mean I know the cases are different:

  1. Nepo knew the rules but didn't know how to implement the castling given the rook was occupying the square that the king was supposed to be in.
  2. Wesley So didn't know the rules.

But I want to know exactly why the difference implies the results: Nepo gets a replay, while Wesley So doesn't? They both didn't know something and would've done otherwise had they known.
