"Where we choose to draw the line" is the rules of the sport. Breaking the rules is not something we leave up to the athletes. Why not motors? Why not secret shortcuts? Why not breaking your rival's ankle? Basically, if you let the athletes decide whether or not to cheat, it's not a sport, it's a joke
Lots of those athletes don't want to dope, but if we "leave that to the athletes" we're throwing those ones to the wolves.
