I find it pretty boring that 41 percent of skiers that won medals between 2001–2010 had blood values that only has a probability of happening in 1 per 10000. It is basically theater where the audience is told to ignore that aspect. Maybe in 100m the effect is smaller but I do not know who would win a marathon between a top 0.1% woman that has blood levels close or above doping levels vs a top 0.1% man who has average blood. As research say, the effect from blood doping is more noticeable in long distance endurance sports which a 100m dash is not. We do have some understanding on what genetic factors give a performance benefit in sports. Weight, height, blood, hormones, and so on. Gender is just a fuzzy proxy. People who advocate for better classifiers is against a fuzzy proxy when current science can produce better competition where the result is less dictated from the start. I theory, such competition is more fair, healthy, and more interesting to watch.
