In response to "Modern pentathlon replaces equestrian event with obstacle course -- (link)" by znufrii

Thematically, it makes sense. The modern pentathlon is basically the "rescue the princess" event.

Swim, shoot, ride, etc. Making a horse prance isn't as thematically appropriate as making a horse jump over stuff. But there's larger concerns at the Olympics right now about horse events and the treatment of animals.
