Which, considering that pretty much all games with a significant eSports scene are proprietary, it's a huge problem and contrary to Olympic ideals.
The Olympics are already bad enough in terms of pandering to multinacional corporations without letting some of them gatekeep and regulate the games themselves.
Thanks for pointing out why I felt so opposed to it. I have no issues with esports, but the games need to be consistent every year, and you can't really get that with esports since esports games change, hardware changes, etc. Competition needs to be consistent, and esports doesn't really meet that mark.
