This will lead to less acts like Mirror Image being put through. But this will never happen because Judge Cuts are filmed in April and aren't live. I think we can all agree they just need to bring back Judgement Week for many reasons. The acts are separated into categories allowing the judges to choose the best acts from each without a severe limitation. It also allows for more acts to actually participate in the Vegas Around and more acts to advance. Like I remember like 50 acts being in the live shows in 2013. Lastly it makes the reveal of who's going to the live shows more suspenceful. In Judge Cuts, you can pretty much tell who's advancing and who's not based on the montages. In Judge Cuts, pretty much all the acts have their act cut down at least a bit and even if you were montaged, you could still make it through. I definitely agree with you although I believe it was 48 in the live shows prior to Season 10. I'm not sure why that was changed. I guess it was because with more people, there had to be some huge cut in QF or SF to narrow down the finalists. So theoretically it would mean that although we would get to see more acts in the QF, most of those acts would go home after their first performance anyways.
