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

Never understood why those seated in the back had to wait.
That's because:
1- It flatters the ego of the First Class passengers (who -or whose employers- paid a heck of a lot more), seeing how many people are envying them their comfort.
2- It makes those cheap passengers, seated at the back, resolve to try and scrape enough money to fly First Class -at least- their next trip. (Thus, a money-maker for the Airlines.)
