I just told you who are the real experts and you got all defensive about it.

"You won't admit that the court said the BAP specifically is NOT a threshold. You claimed the threshold was 80%, but the court said specifically THERE IS NO NUMERICAL LIMIT."
"You won't admit that the court said the BAP specifically is NOT a threshold. You claimed the threshold was 80%, but the court said specifically THERE IS NO NUMERICAL LIMIT."
"The rules provide that the presence of rEPO can be proven by any means. A numeric limit does not exist. "
Second, can other criteria than BAP be relied upon in making the judgement about the image produced by the accredited laboratory when the BAP is below 80%?"
the panel is stating that other tests can be used as well to verify if there is presence of rEPO. That is what you cannot seem to understand. The T/E Ratio test is but a single test. Another type of test, say CIR test can give a different result or conclusion than the T/E Ratio test. That other test does not make T/E Ratio test no longer a threshold test. That is absurd!!!! Same with my other example for the other non-threshold substance. the panel agreed that not all 4 threshold tests need to be proven. Only 1 of the tests is sufficient.
Did the UCI have any of those other tests in their rules? No but they too can still be used to detect the presence of rEPO. In fact it was the labs back then that had these test criteria. At that time, the athlete was positive only when over the 80% threshold. The time of the case, it became a sort of grey zone because of the new information and transition that was to occur .... but that can be the case with other substances as well including threshold substances!
But the test was a threshold type test. Everyone said so .... but you got confused. Badly!
I sufficiently explained my statement that you quoted. It's just too bad that you cannot understand. Sorry!
