Shen & Zhou had no injury problems in 02-03 and 03-04 when they lost 3 of their 5 meetings to T&M, so your injury problems point is moot as S&Z only counted one loss to T&M while coming back from injury (and that was the 06 Olympics where how T&M skated they were never going to lose anyway). T&M were deadly consistent and technically superb so S&Z could not afford any mistakes or they would lose. Which is totally different than when they faced S&S. Totmianina & Marinin also easily dominated teams like Pang & Tong and the Zhangs, only one ever loss to the Zhangs and that was with their most disaesterous performance ever probably at Eric Bompard once; yet S&S frequently lost to both those teams during their reign. All in all it is quite clear that Totmianina & Marinin would dominate and crush S&S in their mutual primes.
