Some of these are pretty reasonable! If you allow them for anyone, you probably make it so to compete at all requires everyone to follow suit. That's bad when those things have life-altering health implications.
But all of these things ultimately shape who is allowed to compete at the peak levels.
it's not always good! Honestly baseball is way less interesting to watch in the majors because everyone's great, all the plays are maximal capability, and it's kinda predictable. You don't end up with many of those "holy shit what just happened? that was awesome!" plays that are so much fun to watch. So as a spectator, these rules aren't always great. Sometimes you want to nerf the peak performance until the game is interesting. Sometimes you don't.
In F1, a huge part of the game is the nerding out about the rules and how to evade them cleverly to get peak performance. And the inside baseball on that is way more fun to watch than the race. The race is just cars going zoom and occasionally crashing, interrupted by amazing choreography in the pits.
There's a reason women's soccer is so much more fun for me to watch than men's. It's not been optimized so hard that the game isn't predictable in kind if not outcome. Plus the camaraderie shown is great.
But looking at all this, we gotta ask, what's sport's function in our societies? Why do we do this?

“People are tired of hearing what government can’t do.
They want to hear what government can do,”
Lewis George said in an interview before the DC city’s primary,
where she defeated her Democratic opponents and positioned herself to win the general election in November in a city dominated by Democrats.
Lewis George’s victory signals a break with a quarter-century of centrist governance in Washington,
and it puts her in the vanguard of democratic socialists who h…

Democratic socialists are winning major mayor's races
Janeese Lewis George is making waves in Washington, D.C., with her progressive agenda as she aims for the mayor's office. Her plans include subsidized childcare and increased homebuyer assistance.

While some cities still favor moderate candidates,…

"She was deported to Panama in June."

Raised in England by Nigerian parents, Balogun, 24, spent most of his youth international career in England’s system

Now he’s leading it at the World Cup.

One of Donald Trump’s most grandiose vanity projects,
-- a multimillion-dollar makeover of Florida’s Palm Beach international airport
into a self-aggrandizing, gold-plated transportation hub,
-- is running into turbulence, barely a week after the first plane’s wheels touched the runway.
At first glance, the rebranding of the airport less than 5 miles from his opulent Mar-a-Lago resort appears to be complete.
Its website bears the name and oversized logo of the …

Trump’s rebranding of Palm Beach airport hasn’t taken off as he planned
Changes inside the Florida international airport are hardly evident as state and county hold back funds for full remodel
