This is maybe a small detail, but why are the break dancers categorised as boys and girls while everybody else is categorised as men or women on the result page?

Looking for results I've realized that they are called "b-boys/girls" in senior competitions as well. Apparently the discipline itself is called "b-boying".

(This is especially weird considering some of the boys and girls are older than some of the "men" and "women" )

B-Boys and B-Girls, stop spreading your B-phobia.

Also, what's up with only their first names?

It's not first names, it's their stage names.

 

I'm not even joking, sadly.

That's true. For example polish dancer has nickname "Axel" but his true name is Piotr Winiarski.
