It's a monopoly. It is what it is and left unchallenged, only what it is.
As a fan and student observer, the official numbers are meaningless and sophomorically pedantic. This includes the fouls _and_ misses. I could GAF. There's so much more to learn about the process - including speculating on their tactical errors.
There is a huge difference on the mental side of things when you are clean or think you are clean and when you know that when the video is reviewed it will show fouls.
You lay a six by six on the ground and dozens of people can walk it. Put the beam 200 feet in the air and very few can walk it. The pressure grows with every rack, tremendously more approaching a record. It's almost funny, they are fighting for every ball approaching a record. Once they think they have broken a record they may run another handful of racks almost effortlessly, the pressure is gone.
When I was a pup I cared nothing for golf, still don't. I would be riveted to the screen for the last few shots when two or three golfers were tied. Fifty thousand or more difference in payout for each place even back then. That was exciting!
That is why the videos when these people are trying to market high runs sell poorly, I believe. We already know how the story ends.
