Tech suits need to stay gone.
We are at a time where masters swimming is blossoming, and frankly, is starting to get a fair amount of respect from the swimming community at large. College swimmers less and less think of masters swimmers as wanne-be's, but see masters swimming as a legitimate future pursuit for themselves.
What we do not need is to implement a crutch just for masters swimming. It would give the rest of the swimming world a good reason to laugh at masters swimming, and I think you would see the respect level drop.
If Phelps can race successfully in a jammer, then so can you.
