You are 100% correct. No one way of doing things works for everyone. Sorry if I made it seem otherwise.I feel like it needs to be said.
Do whatever works for you. Everyone using outside judges is not inherently or automatically being unfair/shady. I used them previously because I was asked to. I changed it up because I wanted more input (fyi: I do not make ultimate decision, my kids are still scored on a rubric, and my other coaches score independently from me) but I don't ever want to make people feel wrong for doing it. If you feel like a panel is best for you/your kids/etc. do it.
There is a fine line between helping people to improve practices and accusing them of being shady or unfair, btw.
