Why do a quad at Nationals when you don't need it?

When is he going to do a quad then? It's kind of like the 3-3 for ladies. A lot of skaters keep putting it off like, "Oh, I'll do it on the GP circuit next season, which turns to oh, maybe Nationals. Four Continents/Europeans? Nope. Worlds then! Oh, crap. That did not turn out well." I think it would benefit them in the long run if they tested those elements out in competition at least once or twice.
Then again, I don't really follow Abbott, so I don't know if he's done a quad all season.

Abbott has had a bad back this season so maybe he's not up to it yet. So try a quad and injure yourself before Worlds? Not smart.
The bad back had ended by the gp in France, where he won silver.
Looking at the protocols, it looks as though there has been a transcription error? The BV for the triple axel is 9.35 for Abbott but it is only 8.5 for Miner and Farris?
Anyway, looking forwards to the videos!! So glad Miner and Farris did well.
