But it was, therefore it was a sport at some point (by your own logic) which I guess would also mean that if shooting was to be removed from the Olympic events then it wouldn’t be a sport anymore (again, extrapolating from what you just said regarding painting), but does that mean that to be a sport something needs to be part of the Olympics or we can evaluate each discipline for what they are, i.e. some competitions present at the Olympics just aren’t sports and that’s been the case for a very long time.
