Nothing that requires subjective scoring is. We could cut the cost right down with some judicious culling:
A. Nothing that requires "scoring" - eliminates gymnastics, synchronised swimming, all martial arts, boxing, dressage, trampolining, breaking, etc..
B. Nothing where the Olympics is not the pinnacle competition; eliminates football, tennis, golf, basketball, etc..
C. Nothing with animals; eliminates showjumping and dressage (again)
D. Nothing that requires expensive permanent infrastructure; eliminates rowing (except beach sprints); canoeing, maybe others?Got to say I'm not happy about some of those outcomes but it would reduce cost massively and move firmly towards the citius, altius, fortius motto.
Of course it would never happen. Gymnastics is one pf the top TV audience figures, especially in the US.

The answer is dressage cos the horse does all the work. Horse dancing is not a sport
