I'd reword that as "But that doesn't mean she CAN'T compete."

Oh, by all means, Michelle Kwan CAN compete when she's 29. But she'll be old, in the skating world, so I don't think she SHOULD compete.There are SO MANY new, young, fresh, innovative skaters out there that outskate her, technically.

She should retire while she's ahead, and not leave the skating world with a bad image.
