    Sadly humans always want to boil things down to simple metrics (or maybe we just like numbers… wait a minute!) and people can’t be bothered to do the hard part after getting the number. The classic example is IQ tests, which just measure how good you are at that particular quiz (despite certain people obsessing over them like the number is your IRL intelligence stat).
