Uno's scoring potential was getting closer to Hanyu's. He has been getting similar GOE and PCS as Hanyu at international competitions. So it's certainly very possible that Uno can outscore Hanyu at national when Uno gives a better performance. If that happens, I can't imagine the outcry. This is the pre-olympic season. So feds try to boost their potential medal contenders as much as possible in order to prepare for the Olympics. JSF do favor and promote their junior skaters when they transition to seniors, especially the junior skaters that medaled or won junior world.
Similar PCS and GOEs? Sure. Justified? I say no. I'll not give examples because that would be "bashing" - not that it hasn't been discussed extensively already. And I'll never understand the +GOEs for the 3.5F both nationally and internationally.
Still not touching "JSF promotion of junior skaters"
