“The Olympics are a representation of the past,” D’Souza said. “They’re rooted in ancient Greece, and they have this amateurish, natural ethos that is run by a bunch of European aristocrats. The Enhanced Games are very different. They’re run by capitalists, who believe in the future, believe in science and technology.”
Yeah sure, that’s the reason.
Regardless of the reason for the event (money), letting athletes do it in the open will allow them to be healthier and safer.
