It is also further estimated that a huge % of pro athletes are on performancing drugs. Just look at basketball players build compared to the 60s and 70s

I agree with your basic point; they we’re all doping. Armstrong’s choice was to also dope or go home.
What you miss is that Armstrong made the choice to lie and destroy many people.
That said, while I think Armstrong’s behavior was dispicable, I think he is finally in his late 40’s maturing into a half decent person.
