The scoring inflation has gotten absurd in recent years. Top skaters are showered with PCS and GOEs whether deserved or not, and nobody else can compete (see Abbott at this year's Worlds for an example). Hanyu is wonderful, but he's consistently getting top TES scores even when his execution of the elements is sloppy. The quad fall strategy is not something I can get behind, for any skater.
There is nothing strange in Hanyu's TES score. Basically his TES here at worlds wasn't so high as for him. When he will go absolutely perfect on everything even TES around 108-110 will be possible for him. He have the highest BV in his programme in the field. Abott is miles away from him in technical level. :sarcasm:
