Redress does have its place.

What everyone needs to understand is that protests and requests for redress at Olympic trials are notorious for going this way. The "loser" will typically not stop until all avenues are exhausted, and this includes post-event arbitration, lots of lawyers, etc.

They literally see this as an acceptable part of the game, otherwise, why would there be rules governing this?

What I'm not seeing is how what USOC is presenting will ever make that aspect go away.
