Strange thing about the Olympics- Track Runners' "USA"

Why do the track runners from the United States have their "USA" in magic marker, while the others are clearly printed?

I think it's because their Nike suits didn't meet the Olympics requirements for display format.

I'm guessing someone forgot them, left them in the rain, or the printer screwed up.
Of course if IBM was organising it the bibs would say, "this page deliberately left blank" and there would be another one saying "see above",

Maybe it was a misprint and it said "USB" on them?

Considering it says, 'USA' on their shirts...whats the point of these stupid name-tags that ruins the aerodynamics of their fancy body suits?

 

[mgb_phys]

Because it discriminates against the hugely fat athletes that "the people's democratic republic of the congo" has to field to fit their name on the suits!
