The Olympics are awash in so much money that it's probably the ideal time to try every crazy thing you have on the backburner, though. They do usually get some mix of every mostly-impractical technology of the day to broadcast each time, along with the standard steams.

Not that, if it came together, VVC would be much more than a point-to-point broadcast between a custom camera and receiver, but such are the things PR Newswire is made of.
