When a move's hitbox extends beyond the hurtbox, usually on a weapon or a stretched limb, there's nothing there to punish. Your attack beats theirs clean because their dangerous part has no vulnerable part attached.
“Good luck contesting that, the sword's a disjointed hitbox so you just lose every trade.”

Disjoints are why range matters so much. A character swinging a disjointed weapon out-spaces normals that would otherwise trade, since there's no hurtbox on the tip to clip.
“Her air normal is so disjointed you can't anti-air it with a regular button.”

Why are disjointed hitboxes strong?
Because you can't beat them by hitting the limb. There's no hurtbox on the dangerous part, so you have to out-space or whiff-punish instead.
