Since when where shirts required for Triathlons?

To be honest I think this is a very silly rule, what benefit does wearing a shirt while on your bike provide? Part of my naivety comes from racing in the USA during the late 90’s and early 2000’s then taking a decade break from the sport.  As a competitive swimmer, I admit that I am desensitized to being half naked.  Well let me back up, besides an abstract idea of decency, there is no NEED to wear a shirt on the bike (I challenge someone to explain to me a legitimate reason for amateurs to wear a shirt during the bike) but rules are rules.So there I was in my first triathlon in Korea...
