The "Miss America" people can hold a pageant and judge women (I suppose) according to any criteria that they think is appropriate.
But the swimsuit competition measures a woman's success at achieving physical "perfection." It is not necessary to have big boobs, or an hourglass shape, or a big ass to look great in a bikini. But you do have to be flat where you should be flat, curved where you should be curved, and everything should be in proportion. ANY woman who puts her mind and effort to it can look excellent in a swimsuit.
Some women will have a God-given advantage over others, but the same is true in every other aspect of the competition. Some women are more intelligent, have natural musical talent, or can think on their feet and answer stupid questions. Every one is not created "equal," but anyone can optimize her standing in every evaluation category.
Looking great in a swimsuit is a major part of beauty. It is not absolutely necessary, but it certainly helps.
The pretense that this is not a beauty contest helps no one. It makes the whole thing less meaningful to the small slice of the public that would give a shit one way or another at any given time.
