I think the question would be whether doping would make you meaningfully better at curling given the risks associated with doping. I don't see it. It's not that it isn't athletic it's that the difference between doped and non doped is 1 or 2% in endurance activities and that difference in fitness is not moving the needle in curling like it does in XC skiing. Female curlers using steroids I could see being worth doing.
On the other hand if Russia is willing to send doped curlers that must mean all of their atheletes are doping.
