Was Raducan robbed of a possible 4 golds/1 silver Games in Sydney by wrongful drug DQ

A few of us were having a sensible discussion on this on another thread before PavLiukin agressively barged in with attacks and name calling since some of us dared to believe Raducan would have beaten her beloved crush Zamo on floor (lol). It got me thinking though, and I think it is worth a thread since it is rarely discussed.

It is well known Raducan was wrongfully striped of her Sydney AA gold for a cold medication issued by a Romanian doctor. What alot dont realize is she was being subbed into the beam finals for Presecan. As she had the highest beam score of all the competition in Team Optionals and the All Around, and her Team Optionals score of 9.837 was the highest beam score of the whole Games, despite a major break on her full twisting back flip, she most likely would have won gold here over Liu Xuan. Due to the emotional distress of the news having just broked she felt she could not go up on beam, which is why they didnt sub her in. Then on floor she competed but was obviously still shaken and fell, whereas with a hit routine she likely would have won gold.

So Raducan's wrongful AA DQ robbed of her a possible 3 additional golds, not just of the AA gold, and she might have ended with a 4 gold/1 silver Olympics, which would have even topped the Olympics Simone had in Rio.
