Comparing Summer and Winter Games is so weird. And just utterly nonsensical. They are two wholly different universes in terms of athlete representation.

The only thing that is nonsensical here is your reasoning. Your whole point was that reducing the number of spots was good, because it made the sports more competitive. So unless you can give me a good reason why the same wouldn’t apply for winter sports, you can’t seriously be in favor of only having one athlete per nation in canoe slalom, but not in speed skating or cross-country.

 

Also there are many summer sports where certain nations are more dominant than any nation in canoe slalom, for example diving, table tennis, archery or women’s gymnastics. 

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

yes, almost in every sport you can find countries that would deserve 2 quotas for olympics
