It's mostly true. The biggest name from what I've looked into is Ben Proud. He won silver at the 2024 Paris Olympics in the 50m freestyle. But you are largely correct it is majority no names.

Then you didn't look very close, because fucking Hafthor Björnsson competed there

I meant in the swimming, sorry for not clarifying. Though you could absolutely consider only looking at that event not looking very close, but that is why I said from what I've seen and not as a fact of the entire competition.

Though on the other hand you did only offer a single additional name so it doesn't really dispute it being majority no names in my mind. Even 1-2 big names per event would still be pretty much majority no names depending how you define it.
