I would too, but my hunch is that the reason he made the switch from 200/400 running to 100/200 running is that he isn't tough enough to handle 400m training. He just put it all together recently, although in his late teens he had a reputation for being lazy. You can't be lazy and run the 400m...but maybe he is such a freak he could run 42 sec.
The 100m is always the first weekend of the olympics, but the 200/400 running typically overlaps. Remember in 1996 MJ had to get the schedule changed so he could do both.
