Simon :

Pros: Tends to give actually constructive criticism and in the previous seasons, he would buzz acts he genuinely didn't like.

Cons: Way too much control on the show, stopping singing acts for no reason, can be incredibly biased towards certain acts especially singers

Heidi:

Pros: Acts in a respectful manner even towards acts that she doesn't like.

Cons: I really can't say anything other than she doesn't like some of the acts that I like lol. Also do the hand-binoculars count

Mel:

Pros: She likes Lioz and Oliver....

Cons: Acts generally rude and condescending towards acts she doesn't like, rarely constructive, biased towards hot guys, all around annoying. She wasn't this bad in earlier seasons tbh.

Howie:

Pros: Seems to recognize what's talent and what's not, acts respectful towards the acts but is also honest, makes some pretty funny comments every now and then, likeable guy

Cons: Can be a little annoying at times when he repeatedly keeps telling the viewers TO VOTE.

So honestly I think Howie and Heidi deserve to stay. Simon can be a good judge but he needs to stop overproducing the show. Mel just seems to have an attitude problem and needs to go. Pretty much agree with everything you said. I sadly think that Howie might be leaving soon, I mean he's been on here for 9 seasons now but I still like him a lot.
