i have no idea what that means or why it's relevant.

I believe you. On a rating scale of 0-10 a value of 5 doesn't usually represent a failure or anything negative, it's usually a middle concept such as "neither like nor dislike". Batting average is another example where 50% isn't a "failing grade". Hope that helps clear it up for you.

no i mean i don't know what a "batting average" is or why it's apples to oranges to compare it to test scores.

i'm assuming you mean that comparing a pure gaussian distribution to a weighted system is unproductive?
