I'm a big fan of seeing the numbers; the 1-5 rating system is waaay
to vague for me. I just have no use for it; a single star is 20%, FCOL.
I would support a measure to have them removed, but I think some people
would see the current system as 'friendly' until they got serious about
it.
I like the idea...a lot!
