I'm not surprised that the solution to the hyperfexion debate is found in the FEI's own rulebook. Yes, why don't they just enforce what is already written? No doubt that the exaggeration of the horse depicted in art forms, --idealizing the horse in unrealistic ways, contributes to the problem of these training and competition trends in all disciplines and breed associations, not just the FEI.
A very interesting debate none the less.
