What I'm after is not an experienced diver having a BO once, or even twice in their career.

But the guys who have more BOs than white cards...

I don't think in any sport the "not trying hard enough" is a very good indication of wheather or not the performance was all it could be. It's not a problem for pro athletes, they are able to push as hard as need be. More of a problem may be trying too hard in relation to your reserves and current level. It needs to be more objective than that. In a good performance, the athlete knows in millisecond accuracy just when to save strength and when to go all out.

A BO performance wise, in my opinnion, is the same as a marathon runner crapping out 10km before the finish line - which is not acceptable for a pro, but rather amateurish. It's not considered a merit to not be able to judge your own strength so well as not to finish your performance...

Anywho, rambling, rambling...
