I can see why they're scrapping jury voting in the semis, there have been quite a few examples in recent years of really unpopular songs managing to get through because of the juries and then totally flopping in the final (see Azerbaijan and Switzerland this year). Bloc voting is less of an issue in the semis generally with so few countries failing to qualify in each show and the regions being split in the draw anyway. A good decision.
