SSO, its musicians and Australia will be embarrassed by this. I don't really have the problem with the miming because the sound of an orchestra won't come up perfectly if the musicians were to play in an open air stadium with bad acoustics and lots of background noises. The problem with it is SSO mimed to the recording by its arch-rival MSO. They could've and should've mimed to its own recording. I don't understand the decision of the Olympic Committee to use MSO recording and asked SSO to mime to it. It's demeaning to the musicians of SSO (because they're not actually playing the music) and MSO (because they're not acknowledged!).
Oh well, what's done is done.
