So, anyone who wants to discuss this, please don't point at the ISU guidelines as if that is some kind of iron-clad argument. Those guidelines aren't meant to be exactly followed like a lemming and they are incorrect in the first place. We are trying to talk about how things should be objectively scored here.
Well, since your definition of "objectively" is "what Blades of Passion believes," anyone who disagrees with you is wrong, and any opinion you hold is a fact, it's impossible to have a conversation with you.
A sport that values and rewards so many different criteria and so many inherently qualitative criteria as figure skating does will always involve some subjectivity -- in visual and aural perception of the skating, in opinions about how to weight different criteria, in defining the borderline between "good" vs. "adequate." That is precisely why it is important for quality to be scored by multiple judges, and why it's interesting to me to share and respect evaluations between different posters.
If recognition that evaluations will differ is not welcome in this thread, we can start another thread to discuss the scoring of the ladies event or other events without pretensions of objectivity.
