I don't get people who don't get this ;-) Imagine if it got to the point where the whole 50m fresstyle race was won by reamining underwater full time. Gone would be the frantic flapping of arms and legs making waves and splashes, which is how non-swimmers understand how fast paced the event is, like the running 100m sprint. People gliding like dolphins viewed in underwater cameras is just not as exciting.
