I do understand why people feel disappointed in her choice. But if it boosts her confidence, helps her focus on good technique, and lets her perform with the emotional depth and resonance she's so marvelous at, I'm for it.
If repeating MR for a *third* season is what it will take for Wagner to get her jumps and spins in order - which, after last season, she needs to do - then so be it.
Other than her being a US skater I am otherwise not invested in her nor am I partial to her; therefore it doesn’t really matter to me what happens with her in regards to music or choreo. (At least on the competitive side - show pieces are a different story). If it gets her points, thumbs up. If she’s able to get on the Olympic team, good for her - if not, we’ll have three other perfectly capable representatives. And BTW this goes for all the other US women too.
