I don't even know why we're discussing this in terms of the 2011 ladies, or the men and pairs for that matter. None of them have been so dominant that they deserve to make the team if they don't place at Nationals.
The only question this year is, should the committee have the discretion to name Davis/White to the world team if they have to withdraw from Nationals or by some unforeseeable fluke end up placing fourth.
