Heartwarming feelings aside,

I wonder what the proposal meeting was like when someone was proposed: "Let's have people with down syndrome fight each other"

I got a laugh out of that (a bunch of evil rich folk coming up with ways to mock the people beneath them), but I think the more realistic scenario was "We should let people with Down Syndrome fight if they want to," in the tournament context.
