I think adults underestimate just how many kids play Minecraft, how much they like the pets and how excited they were about dog armor. So it’s not surprising that the armadillo won and I don’t think it’s worth getting upset about. That’s just how voting works, someone wins and someone loses. I was just glad that I was finally able to vote at all starting last year, since before that you had to have a Twitter account to vote which left so many people out.

I do agree that we aren’t given enough information about each one to make a proper decision on which to vote for, but that also gives them flexibility on how it gets implemented, allowing user feedback to have an influence.
