Very bad decision to scrap the jury vote from the semi. Block voting will return instantly and dominate again.

I’d be interested to know the reason why. I’d suspect it’s to increase voting in the semis - maybe historically it’s been quite low. Gives them the ability to push the line of it all being in the viewers’ hands and generate more revenue if more people vote. I suspect the integrity of the vote and the results aren’t at the forefront of this decision.
