    Do you understand what an advantage is, and that there are N attributes where people have advantages?

    Anyway, how is this relevant to this particular comment chain?

    Can you now show a glimpse of intellectual honestly and show that your source uses poor data and therefore makes a wrong claim? Can you recognize that your initial claim that “Ledecky beats Phelps in long distance” is based on this one source that uses poor data?

    I feel like I need you to acknowledge that a comparison between 1-time trials for 15yo Phelps and Ledecky’s peak performance record was not a sane comparison at all, and that the little difference even in such a shitty comparison proves the opposite of what you were claiming.
