I am intrigued by such divergent opinions.
I kind of sense that people are going ONLY by belting at extreme pitches as a sign of great vocalists. That is like saying only the tallest people with most reach are best at Basketball, never mind actual playmaking or scoring.
But anyway.
When you look at vocal tone or style, it is subjective and some people will like it and some will not like it based on that person's preference. Most people like IU based on her vocal tone and vocal style.
When you look at vocal technique, it is objective and it is not based on someone's preference. Based on vocal technique, IU is average to below average.
