    My own counter-proposal is identical to yours in all respects, except for one minor one: times done using non-FINA suits are not official. Hey, its just masters, right? It shouldn't matter: the exhibition swims are still just as much to be celebrated over beer after the meet is done. FINA has said that the ban does not apply to Masters, therefore the rubber suits cannot be labeled "non-FINA". I thought that conceding moral superiority would be enough. Do we still get our participation ribbons?
