XC individual is more prestigious, because there's only one event.
Team XC is also more prestigious because there is a lot less luck involved when you have 5 people scoring instead of however many are out there with their different events.
No.
The law of large numbers states that the more sample you have, the more likely it'll look like it should.
5 guys are much more likely to have a good day on the same day than 20.
I'm with Dummy-O on the Team Title.
A track title (In or Out) is more prestigious than an XC title.
However, an individual XC title is the creme de la creme.
Neither is particularly prestigious in the context of global sports.
But track as a sport is more prestigious than XC. I doubt there are many people who'd rather win XC than the 1500m or 100m championship.
