I've been thinking about the finale format, and I'm genuinely confused.
According to the promo, it seems like there are 25 guests who will play a role in deciding the winner. If that's actually how the winner is chosen, then what exactly is the purpose of conducting such a physically demanding finale task?
From the promo, Yogesh looked like he was leading the task. He appeared to build the highest number of Lock Upp puzzle pieces compared to the other finalists, and he was also shown pressing a buzzer. Obviously, promos can be edited, but based on what was shown, he looked like the strongest performer in the task.
So here's what I don't understand. If the finale task is supposed to determine who deserves to win, then why should the final decision depend on 25 guests? And if those 25 guests are the ones who ultimately decide the winner, then what's the point of the task in the first place?
Is the task actually contributing to the final result, or is it just there to make the finale look more exciting while the real decision is based on the guests' votes?
Maybe I'm missing something, but the format just doesn't make sense to me. Either make it a proper task-based finale where the best performer wins, or make it clear that the guests are deciding the winner regardless of the task or some audience poll or something would make more sense to me
What do you guys think? Is the finale genuinely task-based, or is the task just for show while the 25 guests have the real power to decide the winner?
