No. As I posted before, judges are looking at thinks like carriage, quality and clarity of movement. They obviously think that the tons of things she does outweigh her shortcomings. And those things aren't subjective, you can compare it easily and when you watch Zagitova right after Honda it's only too obvious. But Zagitova is the rightful winner of course. It's only that her PCS is a bit high. I don't have a real problem with that as long as the ranking is ok (I was offended by the result at Russian Nationals tough).
But that's really all I have to say on that matter. If you can't value the beauty of good posture and extensions I feel a bit sorry for you, but if you're happy with it that's totally fine with me. I only wanted to explain to you that judges do value those things, as they should because it's in the rulebook for good reason.
Of course that i value beauty of good posture and extensions. But beauty of good posture is not something which is judged, because you can't judge beauty. Clarity of movements is a thing which judges are looking for and that is a thing which is not the same as beautiful posture. Saying that someone don't deserve to win because she has bad postures has nothing to do figure skating judging and it's not an argument which can define someone's win (or no win) in figure skating.
