How do you apply discrete metrics to topics that people value differently?

the same way newspaper editors do - they apply a set of curated values - and people buy the set of values they think matches theirs most closely.
at least this way we are transparently surfacing the issues and there is ability for people to apply different curation criteria
Basically I would love to get the weekly report from the US national security advisor - that's basically what I think Inam trying to create.
I would start with a metric like "estimated number of excess human deaths from this issue in next year, five years fifty years" and have open transparent ways to assess the metric
