Ah, I see. Yikes. I've found with the X Factor that often the judges either are not hearing what we're hearing, or they just don't care and only want somebody who will sell records - and I'm not entirely convinced that the quality of the records they may sell matters. Interestingly the 2008 X Factor winner - who can sing - was a judge recently (as one was ill) and her judging was far more realistic than the others'. Thus giving me further reason to very much suspect that for the others it is more about selling rather than singing.
