I think exactly the same thing of motorsport as I explained in another reply. These records are entirely based on technical advance in the equipment. The human factor is incidental.
It’s even worst here because the limits set on the record are purely arbitrary. Why is a souped rifle, civilian optics cobbled together and a calculator significant when you could just use a higher calibre and a better designed gun?
The whole thing is completely artificial therefor pointless to me. I mean there is reason they are beating their own previously held record by 46%. No one cares so no one is trying to beat them.
