it's a question surrounding human bias on the subject of correctness. Most people would argue that 7/10 is "ok or good" where as most people would argue that 5/10 is "not the worst, but not good"

we're not fundamentally biased to the midpoint of something, we're fundamentally biased to the perceived average of something.
