That the aging body and lack of years of technique is not a much more significant reason for no olympians that startes swimming in their late 20's? Even most olympians retire and slow down slightly by their late 20's and early 30's, and it's not because of the lack of VO2Max development in their youth. It's because the age starts taking the toll on the body. this is where I have a real problem wioth your theories, you keep comparing apples and oranges to prove that lettuce is not a fruit. Your logic just doesn't add up. Much like you attempt to compare your results of 17 years of swimming with my results after not even a full year of swimming. Comparing things that can't be compared objectively... all the time. You're a programmer, you should understand what I mean... your if-then loops are misconnected.
