Well nice to know my pointless rescoring has turned out to be useful.
Here were my SP results:
Osmond - 79.73 - 41.93 (TES) - 37.80 (PCS)
Zagitova - 79.57 - 44.37 (TES) - 35.20 (PCS)
Medvedeva - 77.20 - 41.00 (TES) - 36.20 (PCS)
I had Osmond as the clear winner in PCS in this segment. Her speed, power and flow were leaps and bounds above the other two and she had wonderful transitions as well in and out of every element. Flutz is acknowledged but none of the top 3 got edge calls so... The overall construction and presentation of that program was on a masterpiece level. Osmond earned 9.4 points in GOE, mostly +2s with two +3s. She should have won SP.
Zagitova's backloaded harder content was well-executed and her spins were the best positioned of the top 3. She also earned 9.4 points in GOE which, when added to her higher BV, gave her a solid edge in TES. She gave a better performance in the SP than I remembered which resulted in her PCS coming out higher than I thought I would have given her.
Next to the power and speed of Osmond's SP and the harder content of Zag's, Medvedeva's SP was weaker technically by comparison. Her jumps lacked the power and ease of the other two and she was on par with Osmond in terms of spins. She did a lovely job performing her program though. 7.9 points in GOE.
FS results:
Medvedeva - 150.63 - 76.63 (TES) - 74.00 (PCS)
Zagitova - 150.11 - 79.31 (TES) - 70.80 (PCS)
Osmond - 148.72 - 74.72 (TES) - 74.00 (PCS)
Medvedeva had the strongest overall performance for me and squeaks out the win in this segment. I thought she expressed her program beautifully and was fully engaged and in character the whole time. Her performance gave her PCS a boost in PE, IN and CH and even SS--she looked faster and freer around the ice compared to her SP. Med was solid technically though, again, her jumps were the weakest of the 3. She earned 14.3 points in GOE, mostly +2s and one +3 for her step seq.
Zagitova's backloaded program gave her the edge in terms TES though she loses out to the other two in PCS. She earned the highest TR score (9.25) but was last in all other categories but still scored very well (SS - 8.5, PE - 9.0, IN/CH - 8.75). All of her bonus jumps earned +2 except her final axel (+1) and her spins ranged from +2 to +3. She earned 13.3 points in GOE.
Osmond's program didn't land with the same emotional impact as I felt from Med's program. It was a beautifully constructed program that she performed very well, but she didn't have that same confidence and power that made the SP sparkle. Aside from the step out on the lutz, the jumps were stunning (ease, speed, height, ride out), spins strong, steps strong. Definitely her best performance. She earned 12.6 points in GOE.
Final Scores:
Zagitova - 229.68
Osmond - 228.45
Medvedeva - 227.45
For me the scores are all right on top of each other. Zagitova edges out Osmond who edges out Medvedeva. Interestingly enough had Osmond not messed up her lutz, she'd have won in my scoring (228.45 + 1.4 (GOE lost) + 1.0 (positive GOE for cleanly executed jump) = 230.85. It should have been a closer race than it was.
Objectively I don't feel Osmond received the scores she deserved. Her SS should have been 0.50-1.0 point higher than the other two--she was far superior in that category. Her transitions were strong and on par with Med's--Zag gets the win in that category. Osmond's PE, IN and CH should have been tops in the SP and maybe 2nd in the FS. Zag gets the edge in spins but I'd put Osmond equal with Med in that category. Her total BV was significantly less than Zag's (6.33 points) but only 0.78 less than Med's which, when you factor in the comparison of
quality in both of their jumps/spins/steps, the edge should have gone to Osmond.
When you look at it objectively in a head-to-head comparison, Osmond definitely had a rock solid case for silver against Medvedeva. It's also possible with a wider range of scores she could have edged out Alina for gold.
Just my 2 cents...
I hadn't watched any of the programs in 2 1/2 years and the Zhenya/Eteri reunion gave me the strength to relive it. I only included Zhenya and skaters who beat her 
that Medvedeva’s Lutz should’ve been called in the LP- an e, not even an !. I mean +3 from some judges? Please. Also, since you picked up on a UR, please check Medvedeva’s landing on the 3T in her first 3+3
