FINA should allow the "Ryan Lochte turn" in the IM event. If a swimmer can dolphin kick faster supine rather than prone or on their side, it should be allowed so long as they're in the correct position once they break the surface.
Wow. I am really out of my depth on this one (pun intended). I do enjoy watching the swimming events in the Olympics but nuance regarding the rules or technique is way beyond me.
