riddle me this then mr european man (i assume for the context of shitposting)

would you feel ok with getting half of everything you did being completely wrong, or would you feel ok with only three of those 10 things being completely wrong.

half is formidable, like you tried, probably. 7/10 is on the way to being good at it though.

I don't understand this shitpost question.

it's a question surrounding human bias on the subject of correctness. Most people would argue that 7/10 is "ok or good" where as most people would argue that 5/10 is "not the worst, but not good"

we're not fundamentally biased to the midpoint of something, we're fundamentally biased to the perceived average of something.
