Ian Miller the 68 year old Canadian equestrian has been to the Olympics 10 times and is celebrated as "Captain Canada" instead of being urged to retire or called selfish for not doing so. Athletes train to do their best, not to benefit other competitors. More and more athletes are competing well into their thirties instead of retiring 10 years prior. Their longevity is often celebrated and admired as inspirational. S/Z is but an example.
Even if P&T don't medal at Shanghai Worlds, they and their fans can still enjoy their performances. Nobody is guaranteed a medal and they may or may not get one but who is to say they would have wasted a spot if ever they don't get on the podium?
