3. Here finally is a reason in favor of secret judging. The evaluators did not know the identities of the judges that they were investigating. This cuts down on the possibility of the evaluation committee members letting their friends off the hook. (I wonder if that is really true -- that the evaluators did not know who the subjects of the evaluation were.)

The ISU notes that by giving out "assessments" in a timely fashion during the whole season, instead of waiting until the end, they were able to make corrections (or maybe just put the judges on their guard), so that the number of questionable judging calls decreased during the course of the season.
