For me that's the same.
Gatlin was wind aided.
Kipchoge was aided by unlimited pacers who wrapped him, by a car with the exact time, by a time and weather picked exactly, by the round being specifically set up for him, by the lack of any competition, lack of any independant measure of time and distance and without any validation.
Freak show, exhibition, not real.
The IAAF think the same and does not recognize it as a marathon.
