[tantek] ok reviews and ratings folks, where did the default 1-5 rating scale come from? I feel I have found numerous flaws that would be solved by a simple addition of the use of "0" (zero) to ground the lower end of the scale, or in many cases reducing the rating scale to -1, 0, 1. What am I missing? Why are people/experts and orgs so stuck on 1-5 (star) ratings? (yes I'm thinking about a blog post about this)
