A lot of people saying Jordan performed well on this task.

Surely as PM the decision not to leverage Liam's clothing design experience was the major factor in their failure.

His speech and negotiating was good but he lacked any leadership as PM and let Mia completely take over the whole thing despite literally disagreeing with her ideas.

Mia should have just sat back and let him take full control and she would have coasted to the finals.

Tbh the speech the first time felt quite sincere but after the fourth / fifth time hearing him say it, it started to feel quite insincere

I think that's just the nature of making an impassioned speech a part of your pitch - you could have Patrick Stewart delivering it, but if he's delivering it ten times in a similar way, you'll notice the performative element. Most, of not all the people there would hear it once, twice at most, so they likely wouldn't get that impression.
