Probably not, but other masters athletes I've spoken with seem puzzled by the extreme technology reversal.
Ask them if they would be okay with someone using a Harley at the Tour de France, or someone using a Segway at the Boston Marathon... That is an absurd exaggeration, but I think that is the point, a concern about how far things can be pushed before the sport becomes grotesque. Fins and flotation devices are not allowed, but some of these tech suits were close to doing the same things as those devices.
If they don't like that answer, remind them that (male) body suits were how the sport started (wool in the '20s), and briefs are the modern invention.
Geek said it best -- false sense of moral superiority.
Geek has said many things. I thought it was moral sense of false superiority.
Or was it a superior moral of false senses? :confused:
