Ah, Reasonable, do correct me if I'm wrong, but I am taking you to mean this:

Since the Value score is necessarily subjective (as a weight of time spent vs. money spent, quality of time spent, and potential for replayability), it means that there is no way to make our scores concrete, and the individual interpretation inherent in such a score invalidates it.

But.... that's not quite right, either, is it? Because removal of the component scores would do absolutely nothing to objectify the inal score: if anything, it goes in the other direction. Any of these scores is based upon an individual value interpretation, if you will, and no two people are going to have identical interpretations of how these scores should be assigned.

One can make the argument that component scores obscure the purpose of a composite score if they are not averaged, but at the same time a score by itself is always going to be subjective. There is no contradiction there.
