If they did have to set a record then nobody would have received a gold metal for long jump for over 40 years which is how long Bob Beamon's Long Jump of 8.90m of 1968 has held for so far.
Carrying on with this analogy though, the opposing argument holds more weight. Here's what I mean:
Everyone can potentially complete an event in the Olympics and win a medal. They are
common, the number of potential medals being infinite (theoretically). Not everyone will set a record. They are
uncommon, the slots for a record being finite.
Similarly, everyone can make a successful TK build. They are
common, the number of potential TKs being infinite (theoretically). Not everyone will make a ranked TK. They are
uncommon, the number of ranked positions being finite.
Just making a comment on the analogy. I have no stake in the actual argument
