    Thank you for taking the time to reply.

    I agree with most of what you’re saying. Especially about top sports being a combination of both hard work and a unique constitution.

    I just wouldn’t call it segregation, as for me this term has quite a negative connotation (might be a language thing). I think it’s empowering to have separate brackets to compete in so that every “group” of base constitution has a chance to compete. Though this does open the question of where to draw lines and such, to which I don’t have an answer (as it probably goes to theoretical again as you were saying).

    Thanks again for your input 🙏.
