I believe that subjective scoring is a bad idea in anything. I don't think any "sport" that uses it should be in the Olympics.
I think that, for things like gymnastics, figure skating, diving, etc., there should be a certain point value assigned for various moves and you get scored based on that. I don't know how feasible it is, but I think it would be better then the corruptable scoring now.
