Disrespect?

When did we start giving credit to equipped lifters for raw lifts based off what they do in equipped meets (in equipment) or during their workouts and when did it become disrespectful to ask that they do a raw meet and prove what they can do raw? Scot Mendelson did a 715 raw and over 1000 with equipment so we know what he can do in both divisions. Rylick and Kennelly both has done over 1000 pounds with equipment and I keep reading that they could do way over 715 raw because of what they’ve done in the warm up room before a meet or in their workout. I have never heard or read anything from these two guys claiming they could do 700 raw so this goes out to the fans not the lifters. Should they have to prove themselves like Mendy did or do they get credit?
