That's sounds very good

But LOTW don't know about propagation and confirm any match, also when one side of the QSO was during his noon time

The reason is pretty simple -- some operators were cheating by doctoring cards -- for example, by changing 18.1 MHz to 1.8 MHz. The logic is that a card checker should know enough about 160M propagation (and perhaps even activity) to know whether a QSL might be invalid because it occurs at a time when the band could not possibly have been open between the two stations (for example, no common darkness over a realistic path, taking greyline into account).
