Look at this from someone else's perspective. They could say Table Tennis is really easy to play and anyone despite their can also play the sport. Your weight also doesn't matter when playing so how is this a sport? This is what I see from someone else's perspective.
Yep. That is what many people think. The problem is, that you can be out of shape, fat, clumsy, old, unable to move, IN A WHEEL CHAIR and still be pretty darn good. For real. So it isn't an idea. It isn't a theory. You can have everything physically going against you and still play pretty high level table tennis.
To the guys who say that, I pretty much agree, and then I say, but look at what you can do also. And show videos like the first one I posted of Xu Xin doing multiball at lightning speed.
So it goes both ways. Not just one way or the other. You can have a guy with amazing athleticism and have him use all of that to make himself the best he can be at table tennis. And you can have a guy who is out of shape and lazy but still loves to play and he could play the athletic guy and be better than him. It is, without question, possible. So, TT is both, a game and a sport. Not just one or the other.
