The Hallsworth list also fails to give the exact events that the ratings are
drawn upon. This should be a standard, just like countries do when they rate
their players. Plus that list does not give the match scores, nor does it
provide games for download. Consumer report articles that rank certain
products always provide specific details about how the products were tested.
Consumers today are a bit leary about just accepting a claim without data to
back that claim up.
