I think the best solution is simple: If a gymnast weight 70lbs and another weight 100lbs, and they both do the same flip with the same execution, the gymnast weighing more deserves more points, because is _was_ harder for her/him. Maybe just an increase of 0.05 more or perhaps 0.1 in the "difficulty" rating that the committee assigns. This would solve the problem in the best possible way: by taking away the incentives to be as tiny, therefore taking away the need for countries to potentially lie about their participants ages. The Chinese gymnasts weigh an average of !30lbs! less than the Americans (and probably around that same amount less than the others as well). With even a small correction factor for weight, they would have incentives to use older girls that were of a healthier body weight. Unfair? Tell me it _isn't_ harder for a big gymnast to do the same flips as a smaller gymnast, I'd argue that the current system is the unfair one, unfair to the larger (and by that we're still talking about 100lbs) gymnasts.
