Because they *never* make the wrong call
LOL! Touche. But footwork is extremely hard to judge. What looks impressive and difficult is not always difficult, and vice-versa. My favorite is really Takahashi's because you know it gets the difficulty level but it is also a dramatic crowd-pleaser. Plushenko may have gotten a level 4 on his, but at the expense of the choreography and interpretation (which I think *should* have been reflected in the PCS, but wasn't). The arm flailing did not match his music and was just annoying. Takahashi uses the footwork and upper body movement to enhance the interpretation of the music. Same with Mao.
