Yeah, it is a single one dimensional number that attempts to represent a multidimensional system. But also you can pretty well predict whether someone is capable of, like, standing trial or something if that single number is particularly low. It does correlate with a real phenomenon, if not perfectly.

When it comes to extreme outliers, it can maybe be useful for identifying that something is going on. It’s horrible as an actual metric though.
