Of course there is still something of a halo effect in the sport, but the code of points has gone a LONG way to making the gymnastics less arbitrarily subjective. Hoepfully the AI experiments can do something similar for Diving, which is better than it used to be, but still has an awful habit of giving Chinese divers 8.5s and 9's for moves objectively less tight than what earns other countries 7.0s and 7.5s, especially in synchro -
When you have complete control of a population of a billion or so, you can use the Jan Ullrich model. As famously described, I think, by Tyler Hamilton, regardless of the doping, you had to understand Ullrich was ( a bit like Katrin Krabbe) the last prodigy of the east german system - and that system was notorious even beyond doping - it simply threw every talented egg it had as hard as it could at the wall, then selected the one's that coped best in the long run - As Hamilton put it - Ullrich was the egg that couldn't break, except once GDR died, the system collapsed, and Jan found beer. I get the feeling the Chinese trow a lot of eggs at a lot of walls, in the hope of finding a few that won't crack. What happens the broken eggs is not a matter that concerns the system greatly.
