No, I just don't buy your statement as an argument. The solution is simple: Salazar just pretended to not want to break any WADA rules. Just like he didn't mind breaking customs, USATF, and prescription rules.

Again you fail to understand. The point was that by changing populations, we get significantly different prevalence results. The Pan Arab games values are consistently 15 percentage points higher than the World Championship.
If the 29% (which were wrong) weren't your point, why did you - mistakenly - mention it?
That the PAG values were higher, is irrelevant for my argument regarding the 44% of the Daegu dopers. So I understood, but considered it pointless.

Again, you fail to understand, despite the clear example I gave. A failure to consistently update whereabouts, would also be a breach of anti-doping rules, and therefore require a "yes" answer to the question included in the survey, yet technically not doping, or triggering an ABP threshold.
I understood you the first time, but you were simply wrong with your "clear example". Now that you repeated your wrong statement despite my polite correction, I have to say that you are plainly lying again. As per usual. Again, read the study. The question was not just about any "breach of anti-doping rules", but it was, I cite directly from the study I linked earlier for your convenience (which you ignored of course):
"Have you knowingly violated anti-doping regulations by using a prohibited substance or method in the last 12 months?"
And a "failure to consistently update whereabouts" is obviously not a breach by using a prohibited substance or method. Stop making up all this nonsense.

I clearly indicated American and English male distance runners, as a hypothetical example. For the reasons expressed above, I expect the prevalence for sprinters, and distance runners to be different, as well as Americans and British from the general population, where other prevalence figures show countries like Russia, Turkey, Greece, and Morocco leading the statistics.
You came up with a "hypothetical example", yes, but it is exactly that, so not exactly an argument.
As for how realistic that is? It is a fact that 3/4 of the Americans on IAAF's likely doping list were male distance runners. Try working with facts for a change, not hypotheses or lies.
One German was on there, no French, no female American, no American mid-distance runners, no female Brit, no female German and so on.
"Russia, Turkey, Greece, and Morocco leading the statistics"?
On that list:
Russia: 0
Turkey: 1
Greece: 1
Morocco: 1
UK: 1 (Mo Farah, i.e. a male distance runner)
USA: 4 (including 3 male distance runners)
And the most suspicious of them, according to the IAAF scale, is an American male distance runner. So again, your hypothesis that American and British distance runners are particularly clean is not based on facts.
Word of advice: instead of making up stuff again, just look at the evidence.
