In that case you'd expect very few records in the year following the Olympics, which was 2009. Instead we saw records in nearly every event.
I think the suits were even further developed the year following Beijing and they learned how to swim in them. They also could hear the end was coming politically, so their training plan included worlds to try and take down records. Maybe now they are focusing on 2012 and it did not include this year's short course.
Just a thought.
