Firstly, they are only equal best if there are other people in the race, otherwise they are just equal.

Secondly, the original point was about 'the best'.

If you had a class of 30 kids and each scored 80% on an exam (a bit cheating going on perhaps...). Would it be reasonable for any student to claim that he/she was the best in the class?

Absolutely. I suppose in misery-guts land they are all the worst in the class.

Probably, and it would be as wrong as the airy-fairy sugar-coated world.

In the real world, they'd all be equal.
