Rude. And also, an obvious answer. Because her lutz gets edge calls and she wants to maintain high jump content, so she repeats her flip and loop instead of repeating her salchow.
But a well-executed 3sal garners more points than a popped or fallen on 3f, so really, no, it doesn't make sense. Adelina has a great 3sal, she can easily get +2s for GOE on it, meanwhile her success rate with 3f is about 25%, so is 1 more point in BV really worth that much of a risk? Absolutely not.
