I`m just suggesting that there are moral grey areas
That's why we have an anti-doping regime based on science, not morality. Obviously they have some kind of moral framework ("fairness", athlete safety) guiding their choices of which things to prohibit, but the rules are then written in a way which doesn't require moral judgements. For example, strict liability means that WADA doesn't have to look into the soul of an athlete to find a mens rea in order to obtain a conviction.

I know. I`m just trying to continue the discussion that bashthebox started. By stating that there are moral grey areas where things that are currently not on the banned list are still questionable to do.
However there are also scientific grey areas! When is an advantage and illegal advantage.
Trying to make this black and white is simplifying the issues.
