1) wtf are you talking about? literally everyone has access to vaporflys. just because some athletes signed contracts of their own volition that prohibits them from wearing them (i.e. nike shoes), does not mean that they don't have access.
2) it's not "particularly" in the 2016 marathon; it is"specifically". Do not conflate the two. This was an issue then, not now, and not at the valencia race. If anyone wants to break a WR wearing vaporflys they are 100% free too.
3) it is a prototype issue. Any athlete wearing prototypes should be in eligible for prizes/placements in IAAF/USATF races. So yes it was a problem at the 2016 trials and olympics. and currently its a problem for all non-nike athletes wearing prototype shoes.
Do you have any point of disagreement with rojo other than his use of "particularly" vs. "specifically"? Sounds like you agree with him.
