I'm sorry that it doesn't seem obvious. As a firm adherent to the KISS 
principle, I feel confident that no ad hominem dismissals of ions or 
commercial  dehydration treatments has occurred. It is always possible to 
take excessive water and excessive electrolytes, just as inadequate 
quantities can be used. Part of becoming an "elite" athlete is to learn 
from experience and authorities while less than elite.

Often the most important strength of the elite athlete is the ability to 
see red flags waving when you are certain that your understand and command 
knowledge of your sport (or profession). I usually find stupidity shines 
brightest when illuminated by unquestionable expertise.
