OP when it comes down to it many ‘scores’ are graded oddly to ‘hide’ the method behind it.
Why is the LSAT 120-180?
Why does the MCAT place 500/501 as the breaking point for the 50th percentile?
Why does an ELO ranking pick an arbitrary number as ‘new player’?
These all have one thing in common: To quite literally make sure whoever decides the ‘number’ has an ability to hide certain aspects.
