    this system can skew the average towards negative

    say someone found a hair in their soup but otherwise the experience was amazing - even if they’re peak karen they’d still probably give something like 3 stars, but if faced with a binary choice they’d probably pick the negative option

    unless you mean up/down vote per each quality like atmosphere, food, hygine, service etc then that’d preserve the nuance imo

      alternatively it skews the average towards positive: shit i found a hair in my soup! that indicates bad hygiene it the service was so good and i don’t want the wait staff to suffer! i’d probably go 3 stars but this is a thumbs down

      it all comes out in the wash: 1 hair in 1 soup, doesn’t matter… many hairs in many soups, place deserves a 0 not a 3
