Yeah, well, you're a silly way to think about the issue.

I don't doubt they've got sophisticated heuristics based on millions of data points, well-anchored in practical reality. I just have zero confidence in said algorithms.

You also know well enough that I hate having to rate things numerically (How many stars, Josh? Just answer how many goddamn stars?), where this kind of thing should be right up my alley. I'm fairly certain the same applies here.

Also, you have to give them money.
