What is the deduction for insufficient exactness of body shape (tuck/pike/stretch)?

The deduction for insufficient exactness of body shape, whether in tuck, pike, or stretch positions, is set at 0.2. This standard was established to encourage gymnasts to maintain precise form throughout their routines, as it is crucial for the execution of skills and overall aesthetic performance. An exact body shape contributes significantly to the difficulty and execution scores, thus a higher deduction reflects the importance of achieving the correct body position. More lenient deductions, such as 0.1 or 0.15, would not adequately reflect the impact that insufficient body alignment can have on the overall quality of a gymnast's performance.
