This would, of course, increase participation in USMS meets, which would be a good thing.
I agree, more participation might be a good thing. But, more participants doesn't necessarily mean a great benefit. I think some smart people could figure this out without swamping us with open-turning, tri suit wearing, paddle pushing tris. At least we know the IM and stroke events would see not increased participation!
