Replying with further condescension. Should I have expected anything more?
No.
I'd prefer regulations against suits that go past the knee. For men, any material above the waist would also be prohibited. For women, nothing on the arm or neck. That's jammers for men and kneeskins for women.
This fits in with the "less is better" era of swim suits, except for some extra fabric on the leg if people desire more modesty (and maybe a little speed boost). Less fabric means less opportunity for performance differentiation between tech suits, and more affordable suit prices. It wouldn't be about what you're wearing quite as much as it is now.
Also, this is the outfit that Gary Hall used to win a gold medal in the 2004 Olympics. It's not slow.
