It's a TV entertainment show.

The scoring system has to suit that.

It's not a dance competition.

The producers want a scoring system that suits them.

They've got it.

I agree I much prefer it as an Entertainment Show.

As mentioned before, that wasn't the case in the Tom/Lisa/Rachel semi final. He couldn't escape the dance off even topping the vote and that's why system changed.
The real disaster that year was failing to hold over a week so there would be a 3 couple final. As soon as John Sergeant withdrew from the competition they should have dropped the elimination for that week.

I would have much preferred John Sergeant to have gone all the way than to have withdrawn early that year.

Yes, the actual points they score is irrelevant, it's the place they are on the leaderboard which gives them the number which is then added to the public vote placement.
Cadiva, I'll be forever grateful to you for explaining this!
(still hate maths though)
