Different category designations for Performance vs. Distance

Feature Requests
1

Could we please use different labels for performance based categories vs. distance based events?

We have race/ride categories of A, B, C, and D which are based on FTP (or zFTP and/or zMAP and/or other) performance metrics.
Then we have event categories of A, B, C, and D which are based on the distance to be ridden.

The confusion caused by the above is never ending and completely unnecessary.

Can we please have two different systems?

Switch the race/ride performance based categories to 1, 2, 3, 4.
-or-
Make the event distances L, M, S, W (Long, Medium, Short, Women’s).
-or both.

I’d agree although suspect it’s not a quick fix with the categories so baked into the Zwift code.

Hopefully with their new ranking/scoring system which i think allows for more pens will allow such options.

am sure it was said changing from the 4 cats is too difficult a coding issue when more categories was brought up the other week
