Glenn The point I tried to make was that amount recordmargine is a balance thing.
Making this too big, like 20m, would hamper the sport for various reasons.
Making it too small, Decimeters (1/10 meter), would also hamper the sport for various reasons.

Now people like Guilliame Nery CAN chime in picking up a 'minimal' AIDA worldrecord, promoting freediving by putting Freediving in the news.
Some divers are able to keep up with the world's elite, but I thinks now the sport is maturing it will be more rarely one has the ability to top all others with wide margines.

I think the recordmargine question relates to not only to the amount of respect the athlete gains, but also to amout of exposiure and promotion of freediving.

To me the current 1 m margine feels pretty natural, because most of the general public can relate to.

Love, courage and water,
