Well, Takahashi did attempt a 4flip in his Worlds LP this season when he won. He was close, but no cigar. It's not like he didn't attempt one at all like Buttle and Lysacek though.
Would the majority of fans rather see a skater fall down on a quad or land a clean 3A?
I guess it depends on our individual preferences.
I would rather watch a clean Buttle or Chan than a clean Joubert or Plushy.
Others feel differently. I think it is good for skating that we have some wonderful artistic skaters as well as some big jumpers. To be fair, they all perform a variery of jumps and all have their own brand of artistry.
I am a fan of Dai's skating whether he does a quad or not. I do like most skaters better when they don't fall down. Maybe others prefer the thrill of a splat but not me.
