The most substantial change, of course, is that suits would no longer be allowed to extend past the knee.
My personal opinion is this is sort of an arbitrary change. What really should be changed--if anything--is what types of materials are allowed and maybe testing protocol to approve a suit. I don't really think requiring suits to end at the knees would affect much.

Seems to me the cat is already out of the bag on the suit issue. Actually the cat is miles away now. What a disaster it would be to implement a potentially slower or limiting suit technology AFTER all the World Records were broken this year.
