I'd be willing to buy the BPM excuse to an extent along with the fact that since it's the only 1/4 in the song (aside from 00:05:073 (3) - ), so the 1/4 slider does make it stand out. I still personally think that the slider is too short, but I won't let my personal opinion stop you from pushing this forward.
For what it's worth, guidelines are there for a reason; you can't just break them willy-nilly. I wouldn't consider what you provided as an "exceptional circumstance," but who am I to judge if others would see it as such.
@Regou, snapping of notes does come into play when referring to note density. You wouldn't put something like this in a hard, even though the space between notes is all 1/4, right? The example doesn't apply to this situation but I wanted to respond to that point.
So yeah, good luck in ranking!
