I think all Olympic level sports are a lot about “finding ways to cheat the rules then it is about athleticism” because it’s the highest level of competition. Myself, I am not athletic. If I wanted to become a runner I’d get better by running more. But the best of the best are already training a ton. So to get advantages and milk those few teeny tiny advancements they have to turn to things like the suits. Remember those swim suits that they used to use? I think they’re banned now but they gave an advantage and I think they were single use too, which is crazy.
