Swimwear is pretty much the last straw for swimming technology, or allowing you to synthetically go faster otherwise. They're racing against each other just as they did 100 years ago. Imagine the Tour de France with teams issued mandatory 37lb Huffy's to complete the tour so times can be comparable on some classic stages as they did 50 years ago. But again imagine swimming competitors wearing a torpedo shaped suits allowing them to coast 25 meters from the start.
No matter how you look at it, a happy medium needs to be made
