If I'm right, no competitor would be justified in doing low finishes
by the idea of flying an optimal finish. Their only justification
would be "showing off" or "having fun". Now who has got the knowledge
of physics to do the maths?

So if there is no clear competitive advantage, we dont need new rules to
prevent competitors harming themselves as they desperately strive to
win.
We might need some training (in the final glide), especially if novices,
and we should not endanger other competitors nor third parties.
"Having fun" seems a very strong reason for allowing activities. That is
why most of us participate in recreational activities.
