We're trusting what Alberto says now? You know, he's been so honest and transparent for so long, of course we can rely on his statements.
TUEs are wide open for abuse. What he's not mentioning is TUE periods are not standardized and can be quite long.
For example, the prevalence of "asthma," real or not, as a TUE in elite endurance athletics means the TUE period will be quite long because, theoretically, once you have asthma, you can't be cured. Of course, mysteriously, many elite athletes ARE cured of their asthma after their elite-level careers are over.
You are absolutely INCORRECT!!! TUEs are NEVER granted for a long time. They are granted for medical emergencies ONLY (in this case an allergy flare up).
