I can certainly see reasons why their timing probably hurt them but - maybe - the success of V/M and D/W helped them and other North American teams in less obvious ways. I am not knowledgeable enough to really discuss the judging but it seemed doors were opened that were somewhat closed before. Also, they attracted more skating fans to dance that previously were not that interested in it which, for better or worse, has resulted in more opportunities.
