The AAA classification is no exact science. It's a classification made by consumers that was adopted by companies as a a marketing tool. It is not hard to distinguish AAA games from indie games. It might be harder to distinguish when all you do is play AAA games or games made by big companies because they are all on a similar level of scope and polish.
BTW Andromeda is more polished than 99.99% of games. It is a true AAA game without any ambiguity.
The only person I've seen in here saying anything about "good" games is you. It's flawed to have a subjective label connected to an objective measure like the AAA label which can be fixed on observable facts.

Yes, it is flawed, I admit. The point is that we as consumers can not define a game as AAA just by looking at it. We have next to no numbers on anything, we can only say that it looks 'big' and 'ambitious'. But we don't know the circumstances. Therefore we should not be the ones to categorize games.

You're too fixated on there being specific or numerical criteria when there doesn't have to be. We judge everything by appearance, and there's no reason we shouldn't classify games as AAA or not, there will be cases where not everyone agrees but it doesn't matter. AAA games is a useful term for referring to whether a game is a major title or not.
