I think both the article, and the attitudes of a few of the people  
quoted, are what should be questioned.

El Metropoliato is the city championship.  Winners automatically  
qualify for Mundial, the wworld championship, and are seeded into the  
semi-finals.

The same is true for the US Championships, held in San Francisco in  
March.  The US Championships required that at least one member of the  
couple be American.

There is no exclusion, or nationality requirement to compete in Mundial.

There is a difference between dancing in an artistic expression, and  
dancing in a competition to represent a city or nation.
