| Jul 13, 2017 at 14:25 | comment | added | pjmorse | Commenting since I don't have an authoritative answer, but (1) gymnasts have the luxury of not having to reach 2.5m in a specific location, as high jumpers do when they clear the bar, and (2) most "limiting" rules in athletics (e.g. most relevantly, the regulated center of gravity on the javelin) are either to prevent unfair advantage (seems unlikely in this case) or protect the athletes and/or officials. I'd bet it's a safety rule for one reason or another. | |
