Why is it irrelevant? I could use the exact same arguments as you did in Nathan's case in his debut season and argue Boyang should have received higher PCS in his debut season, based on just quads.I don't want to bring in Boyang because it's irrelevant. This FS is only the second time Nathan skates a no fall 6 quads program this season and his
entire senior career. The 1st time he did it in the Olympic, he's in the 2nd group, two groups away from the final group, and he got 87+ PCS which actually is only 3 points more than his 2016 GPF LP ("only" 4 squeaky-clean quads and they all in the 1st half).
It shouldn't. Moving the goalpost isn't fine, and corruption isn't fine, especially with the fed point. You could have written "doesn't" there, and I would've agreed.Don't tell me the skating order, the TEC difficulty and the reputation, (many people also want to bring up the power of the federation) shouldn't affect the PCS.
As long as the judging is by people, no matter how the rule changes, to reach an absolute consistency and objectivity is beyond reality.
Every athlete and their team can decide if they want to just working on nothing but quads to have a 6-quad program so that they can have
90+ PCS.:sarcasm:
PS. Nathan to me is not just about quads.
As I've said, and as Yatagarasu has said, the ISU is free to come out and say it, instead of applying varying standards.
PS: Doesn't matter.
