You would pay $45 to enter the meet and find out that the swimmer in the next lane paid $27.50.
You heat would be delayed for 3 hours and you could not go the bathroom. Whereas the event scheduled behind you would have already finished.
TSA (thousands standing around) would search all the swimmers prior to gaining entry to the pool deck. Some lucky winners (90-94 y) would be pulled off for special full body searches.
The shady spots on the pool deck are more expensive.
There is surcharge for using the newest speed suit (!$#@).

Meet officials would be caught running the meet while intoxicated.
Lane width and length would be cut in half. And in half again later on.
There would be rampant smoking in the bathrooms between events.
Races would be delayed mid-swim due to an overcrowded swim venue.
Instead of your competitor in the lane next to you, there's a crying toddler doggie paddling to the wall. When you both reach the wall, he barfs on you.
You wonder how the swimmer next to you got to do the race with her pet dog in tow.
Sprinters like Ande would convert to distance in order to partake in the mile high club.
Now. . . if the government ran swim meets. . .
