No. It will just be the norm in a few years when every other shoe company copies the tech. Kudos to Nike for getting there first.
In 20 years time when some guy is writing an article about the first 4% shoe he will a light hearted paragraph making fun of the fact that people were outraged by the new technology.
Emma Bates among the women. She’s an Asics-sponsored athlete, and was wearing a black racing flat. Does anyone know what model?

Can’t be that. She is wearing them in this video. Must be some other shoe ASICS has.

No, it’s definitely an Asics shoe. You can see the logo if you zoom in.

We'll wax nostalgic about how we used to think all you needed to compete was a pair of shoes and desire...
I am very surprised to see Jaob Riley 2:10.06. I have not heard that name in awhile. That is a huge comeback or maybe huge breakthrough. He is not likely sponsored so he wore VF or maybe not.

If you think it will take a few years for that you're fooling yourself. The non-Nike athletes on starting lines at WC or marathon majors are not silently waiting for their sponsors to neutralize the carbon-plate advantage

He wore Next%.
Parker "Coulda run 2:09" Stinson didn't even know the model of his Sauconies. Seemed kind of pissed to be getting beaten by all the platformflys.
