In the event of a mass flooding event, the ability to swim would be no help whatsoever.
The area of water would simply be too wide and too deep.
On the other hand, the ability to swim is quite useful for small-scale water events, like accidentally falling into rivers,or having a leak in your
canoe.
Maybe, just maybe, this is the real reason why people are being taught to swim.
