The more you do blood doping, your risk of a blood clot or other major complications increase. If everyone in sports blood doped, a noticable number of athletes would die or have career ending complications because of it.

Blood doping is not illegal. You and anyone who agrees with you are 100% free to host your own Cyberpunk Olympics with whatever eligibility rules you allow. You might not be allowed to use the word Olympics because of trademark.

But if this were allowed at the Olympics, the only winners would be those who put themselves at more risk. It would effectively be mandatory if you want to even get close to the top.
