Two point difference isn't that much when the scores are doubled and the old Chinese missed an entire lift!

Yes, but the old Chinese had a record short program score of 76.66 while the young Chinese scored 71.28. That's a 5.3 pt difference. The old Chinese had some deductions in their long program, but unless they massively failed like the Germans did, they weren't going to lose the gold.
