Should USMS follow "suit" ?

If the full body rubber suits do end up getting banned, why should USMS follow their lead on this issue? (i.e. assuming the suits would continue to be manufactured). Isn't Masters mostly for each individual to pursue what they want and the level they want out of the sport? If the full body suit is preferred by many USMS participants, why not satisfy the base by keeping it available? What's really the point of forcing old USMS swimmers out of their girdles if FINA bans them? John Smith

    The point is that most other sports have incorporated new technology and have done so without compromising the spirit or integrity of the sport, and their respective federations/governing bodies have managed to regulate said technology without turning back the clock twenty years.
