And sports where a single competitor can get multiple medals are equal to sports where a whole team gets just one.
And medals for shooting an air rifle or sitting upright one a jumping horse count as much as medals for running 26miles or winning multiple multi-hour games, like tennis or soccer.
Point is, it's all arbitrary and it doesn't matter, so there's no reason to bash one arbitrary count in favour of another.
