The more creative you expect to be over time, the more risks you need to take on and the more experiments you need to do
Can't agree. Classical ballet has fixed rules governing the desired look, and if you want experimentation there are plenty of schools of dance already out there.

A ballet academy need not be restricted to only refining classical ballet. Creativity is often essential to succeed at an artistic endeavor. It's quite alright, and it may even be essential for the artists, to occasionally branch out to see what else you can do with your art.
A couple of examples:

Somewhere deep down I have faith that a position was opened for this person, which did not take away from the normal positions.
I mean the admissions people are apes like everybody else, and they've devoted their lives to the pursuit of this art. The admissions category for this specimen would be beyond obvious for them, regardless of cultural programming.
