Got no dog in this hunt, but it sure seems:
1-Everyone who entered is a USMS swimmer. That they participate in another sport is irrelevant.
2-Everyone who entered seems to have followed the rules to do so.
3-Some really good swimmers got shut out, which sucks. Rules should be changed to let faster swimmers get preference next year.
4-USMS should be looking for ways to sponsor 1000- and 1650 events to draw more triathletes to meets and increase revenues.
5-Some (but certainly not all, or even a majority) of the comments here seem to belie the "just-jump-in-the-pool-and-swim-and-you'll-make-lots-of-friends" line I've typically read about entering meets.
