Athleticism gets higher marks.

I love the whole gestalt, the skating, music, costumes, artistry, athletic performance.
But I like the artistry more, as you say the skating and music.

Yes the tall skaters look so graceful and flow with the music.
But the short women skaters are talented as well, almost like gymnasts in their talent.
With a better center of gravity than the tall gals.

And of course in pairs and ice dancing, the smaller women are easier for the men to
pick up and throw around.
