I don't argue the point. What goes on off the bike (having nothing to do with cycling) should be none of the UCI's/USAC's/ASO's/USADA's/WADA's/IOC's or USPS's (OK - they are a sponsor - I take USPS back) business. Being a horrible person is separate from race victories. It may affect sponsorship. That was on him. The taking away 7 tour victories for someone never sanctioned for cheating around about the time of the event is silly.

I know who won those 7 tours.
