How does the ZERORISK scoring scale work?

There is no perfect score on the ZERORISK scale; no score is objectively “better” than another, as positions require different scores and score benchmark ranges. It is helpful to think of the scores in terms of the clarity or resolution they indicate. The number 6 represents clarity and objectivity in a particular thinking facet. Scores above a 6 represent an attention to/bias toward what is being measured; scores below a 6 represent an attention away/bias against what is being measured.

Think of this graphic as a mountain; the closer you are to the top, the clearer the view. The further down the mountain you get (in either direction), the more obstructed the view becomes.
