Point well taken. You are right. But if funding is not a concern, then why don't they at least supplement travel costs? It would help a little to attract oversees runners(depending on the host track) creating global exposure, and hopefully global sponcers. I know this has been thought of and talked about , but I wish they would strengthen what they have befor the 2 day plan spreds things to thin. IMO
