I have mixed feelings. I'd hate to see a bunch of ambitious, overconfident young women injure themselves trying to keep up with the best woman gymnast of our time. But really she should get credit for it. On the other hand, major men's sports tweak rules all the time: change the resilience of the baseball; outlaw spitballs; lower the pitcher's mound; talk about moving the pitcher's mound back; add overtime to pro football games; literally move the goalposts (to the back of end zone) and otherwise make field goal attempts less attractive; modify rules to protect the quarterback; dramatically reduce the amount of contact a defensive back is allowed to bring on a receiver; expand the three-second area dramatically (there's a reason it got the name "key"); etc.
