Why is Soaring declining

Changing a few nouns in the article would not make
much difference.

Agreed. But my intended point was that the vision was wrong. The focus
of the article was "how can we get the SSA to grow" where the focus
should have been "how can we get the sport to grow". The article is
bothersome because 1). it's the typical reaction of a bureaucracy
fighting for survival, and 2). the SSA forgot why it's there.
