    In USA Swimming there is an American record that only Americans can win regardless of where it is swum. Come on, that's apples and oranges. One of the reasons that USA Swimming exists is to run the system that qualifies swimmers for the big international meets where citizenship is absolutely a factor. The parameters of the two organizations are pretty different.
