I'm glad Japan is making a comeback! And this new scoring system prevents artistic gymnastics from being "artistic"! Now, if you don't have a difficulty of at least 6.0 (which is still low), you're not going to win all-around.
this is what the olympics are supposed to be about: checking your egos at the door and competing: the pros that are in now have sucked the spirit out of the olympics.
