Cant remember where I read it, but I heard that someone is petitioning to have Popov's 50 LCM Free world record expunged since it was done in a time trial.
I disagree. If it was done legally, it should stand as a WR.
Meets are there to crown champions and award medals etc under race circumstances, but the pool and the clock are there all the time, taking on all comers.

It's funny that Tom Jager protested the setting of Peter Williams' world record in a time trial, then set the world record in a time trial seven years later.
