Yeah. Okay.
You're ignoring the fact that every speciality is awarded on their own. You can get a gold silver or bronze medal in that particular specialty you're competing for.
No one's questioning how huge Olympics are, but how much the award is worth in the field that people compete. For example: Argentina won the gold medal in Athens 2004 in football. We went against only 2 difficult teams in the whole competition, namely Italy and Paraguay. Our team didn't get the recognition we would've got if we'd won the world cup. Even the rules kinda dumbed down the level because only under 23 players are allowed with the exception of 3 above 23 players. How is that the best of the best SSS rank competition? Get my point?
