The only way you can auto qualify at this point is if your country stinks at track and they'll send anyone who hits the Olympic standard.

If your country truly sucks, you can still go without meeting any qualifying standard. You can get 1 in that way. Think of that embarrassing eric the eel performance for equatorial guinea. Not quite as bad in track, because even poor counties can afford dirt to run on, but the concept still stands. If your country is arse, the top rated athlete gets a free pass. I could name probably 5 or 6 people i swam club with who got in this way. Zambia, Seychelles, Barbados, Suriname type countries, with woefully underdeveloped youth sports or just tiny population pool.
