oops, I didn't catch that sarcasm... it's late and I had a long dayI was a bit saracastic... art can not be manufactured, they need to be developed organically. Problem is is COP as it is now does not care about artistry, and thus the manufactured cold hearted system by Lakernik.
Now they are even trying to phase out the artistry by making it a separate event. These are such statistician's strategy when they attemtp to control the mathematical game and minimise aspects which are not easily quantifiable. If we have different people in charge from the sport, rule changes, judging panel makeup, judging standards, marking trends, and type of champions.
