The rating system

Anything with a rating uses an integer from 1 to 7:

• 7 — Perfect, must try, life-changing, go out of your way to seek this out
• 6 — Excellent, worth repeating
• 5 — Good, don’t go out of your way, but enjoyable
• 4 — Passable, works in a pinch
• 3 — Bad, don’t do this if you can
• 2 — Atrocious, actively avoid, repulsive
• 1 — Evil, life-changing in a bad way

Why this scale? I like rating out of 7 better than 4 or 5 because I need more granularity at the top, for the good experiences, and 10 is too granular.
