I'd could say there are enough bad or worse examples out there to influence where the bar rests.
Or that there should be a middle ground between good and bad one has to pass through in order to reach the other side.
But the bar changes its location for each person, with different gradients of intensity changing based on experience and personal bias.
As the Chernobyl meme goes, "not good, but not terrible" is also an acceptable measurement.
