It is quite an achievement... although I do wonder if she would have held on to it, if she hadn't largely stayed away from competition for the last quad.
If she competed this whole quad it would mean she was more motivated than she actually was as we saw her and still coming 1st or 2nd in each event she was in. Given that the skating of 2011-2014 was weaker than 2007-2010 a motivated Kim would not have missed a podium even competing the whole quad.
However that is moot in a comparision to Kwan since as I said Kwan from age 15 to 23 never missed a podium, and from age 16 to 20 was never lower than 2nd in any competition. She already matches Kim in the first and surpasses her in the second.
