Details from refusal letter?

What else did you submit as proof of relationship?

Even couples with 7 or more years time served in marriage have been rejected.

What did the refusal letter say (without identifying detail)? not enough evidence or marriage of convenience?

Perhaps Hyfa expected the ECO to follow the law.

UK plays hardball. Whether this is policy I couldn't possibly say.

It appears as a war of attrition.
However

... misunderstandings and neglect create more confusion in this world than trickery and malice. At any rate, the last two are certainly much less frequent

Some applicants fight and some give up and fall by the wayside.
OP needs to manage expectations and plan accordingly

Until clear details of refusal are shared noone can comment authoritatively on whether any law has been complied with or broken - and by which party.
As to what goes on in a caseworker's mind, don't go there.
