The revised policy improves the clarity of definitions, refines competition formats and categories, and updates the judging system to provide a more comprehensive evaluation of performances. Additional measures have also been introduced to safeguard the youngest athletes participating in title events. These changes do not alter the fundamental structure or intent of the discipline but ensure that competitions are conducted in a clear, fair, and transparent manner.
