    The ITTF had persuaded the IOC to permit them to use men's & women's team events instead of men's & women's double events. The IBF should also persuade the IOC to permit them to use mixed team event instead of mixed double one.

    Interesting suggestion

    I hope somebody is working on that.. even though I would still prefer the decision to be changed so that mix double could remain as an Olympic event

    Why have another men's and women's team event when we have one every two years already? i.e. TC/UC.

    What is the justification?

    I can see the argument for a mixed team event. Then mxd doubles can be included.
