Apparently Hanyu is now the #1 Japanese man. This simple fact does add something on his PCS. You don't need to refer his "past" numbers. So-called skating skills are not objectively measurable as numbers of rotation in the air. I think "skating" alone is not enough to win at the most prestigious "sports" event. The OGM will go with the highest TES.
I think Hanyu has great skating, especially his flow and speed. He seemed to be able to gain speed with minimal crossovers and that, combined with difficult jump entries, often made his jumps seem to come out of nowhere. That's not a quality I saw in any other skater's program (from GPF at least). It was very impressive.
