this implies you're giving weight to the first element then the second.

let's say you were optimizing something to be pretty A, delicious B, soft C.

you tune the system and evaluate the prettiness, deliciousness and softness.

you tuned it several times and got three products (A, B, C) of (1,2,3), (2,1,3), (3,2,1) - concrete values are correct evaluations. how exactly do you choose the best one, is prettiness more important?

pareto efficiency come to mind - also discussed in the article. [1]
