That's a very amateurish and closed minded comment.
There's a reason professional sports team and players study the styles of their opponent. Teams employ statisticians for this exact role. Before games, teams study the style of their next opponent. After every after game teams go and study the recordings of their last game.
Which is why I qualified my comment with "clearly better". You can study Usain Bolt's running style all you want, it will still leave you in the dust. Studying makes sense only when the difference is small.
