I agree that situationally you may implicitly cede your loot rights. However, in a vacuum, the rules themselves clearly elaborate that if you did not kill the mob or have the rights granted to you that you do not possess those rights.
You may later have a ruling in your favor, but only after a factual inquiry by a decision maker, and only after putting your character "at risk."
