For the most part yes, but not completely.

I am not at all disputing the fact that top spin has become the most dominant element not only in table tennis but also in most other racket sports like tennis & nothing is wrong with that
My problem is with ITTF's maniacal obsession with just top spin to the total extermination of back spin (chopping) & no spin (flat hitting) styles of play
Just because ITTF stupidly believe that this would make table tennis cool and more acceptable to the masses like tennis
