Male and female competitions should be offered in each of the following categories:
Junior Expert (0-14), Expert (15+), and Advanced. If there are less than 3 Junior
Expert competitors they may choose whether to compete in Expert or Advanced. If
there are less than three females or less than three males overall, the male and female
categories are merged.

10D.4 Categories
Male and female competitions should be offered in each of the following categories:
Junior Expert (0-14), Expert (15+). Advanced category is optional however not allowed at Unicon.
If there are less than 3 Junior Expert competitors they may choose whether to compete in Expert or Advanced.
Ifthere are less than three females or less than three males overall, the male and female categories are merged.
Body
For other smaller and local competition I think an advanced category can be very good to motivate younger and not-yet-expert rider, but should be out of question for World Championships.
The competition is about finding the world best, not having a competition at the best of the not best.
