As a side note, keep in mind that, appearently, the judges DO NOT DIFFERENTIATE the different PCs categories, basically just giving some score for all fields, with minor variation.
So all you people who keep saying "omg, the PCs categories are a necessity, they are needed to differentiate the subtle aspects", the judges dont.
Yes, because all of them are dependable/based on same thing - blade work and body work. Thus, we got one total PCS score in the end, presented to audience. edit: but making 5 categories of it is more useful to skaters themselves, because it (through those minor variations between categories) gives them recommendations in which part they can work more (for example when Mirai get 7.75 in PE and 8.25 for IN that means she could skate with more awarness of the audience while skating, when Ashley get 8.25 in SS and 9 in PE that means she could work more on speed and edges, when Tukt get 8.50 in SS and 7.75 in TR that means she could work more between the elements to make her programme looks as a whole etc etc)
