      Except it isn’t even an objective scale other folks are rating something a 5 for not being complete POS and being 5 dollars treating it as an objective scale and using a different one from planet Earth is less than useful.

        Yeah which is why I pretty much ignore stars unless someone has a rubric in their profile, or an actual review attached.

        Solely numeric reviews are basically no better than up and down votes. Good for automation or algorithms, but largely useless to humans.
