Swimmers at the Olympic level also have much better technique than your average swimmer. They are not looking for TI-style changes, because they are already swimming that way.

It is incorrect:
.) I posted a few posts ago, that unlike what Total Immersion claims, Popov doesn't overlap but uses the rotary style;
.) I posted a few posts ago, that unlike what Total Immersion claims, Ervin doesn't streamline after the turn, he is faster by breaking the water earlier than what's recommended;
.) van den Hoogenband is asymetrical in freestyle but he is the world record holder in the 100;
.) coach Colwin claims to not change a swimmer's own style in order to match an abstract 'technique';
after all, swimming fast is not ballet.
And so on for everything else that you claim in that post.
