Performance

3 performance claims. Claims about how well it does the job.

no value claims yet. Claims about what it costs relative to what it does.

Repairability

Community breadth

all evidence from a single community so far. How many distinct communities converge, rather than one echo chamber.

Recency of evidence

most recent evidence from 2024. How recent the evidence is. Old evidence is not wrong, just older.

Objections raised

3 negative claims, mostly ergonomics and aesthetics. How much complaint is on the record. A high figure means the drawbacks have been stated and quoted, not that the thing is worse.

These are separate measurements, not components of a score. They are never added together, and there is no overall rating, because which of them matters depends on what you are buying the thing for. An axis that says no evidence means nobody has spoken about it, not that the answer is low.
