Sorry, confused here on why the pothole variant is more objective? If anything, the manhole cover one seems pretty clear cut?

Potholes are naturally occurring. For any particular pothole, there is a reason it took whatever shape it did.

The only real constraint operating on manholes is that they fit the opening. Unless you can produce a design document specifying the requirements for the manhole you're looking at, there isn't really a "why".
