Basically to me it comes down to can 30 adults be trusted to act like the professionals they are paid to be for a whole Tour or do they need "encouragement" to act in a sensible manner.
The later you (the pro sportsman) are up into the wee hours of the morning the more likely you are to be involved in a headline of some description and the less likely you are to be able to give 100% effort to the task at hand, ie winning the World Cup.
On current (last couple of years, not just this week) evidence it would seem that not all 30 individuals currently selected realise that?
