I think it's patronising to say the viewers can't GET the basic concept... I'm pretty sure they understand it.
Of course it's a popularity contest, if it wasn't it wouldn't be on TV, it'd just be a dancing on ice competition. But it's a television programme, which immediately means viewers pick favourites, and since its all done impersonally (i.e. through a television) they pick those they "like" over talent. It's happened throughout time with TV programmes like this.
