I don't know how comfortable I feel with that.  I've never liked "scoring" art.
It's hard, for instance, to score composition, since no one seems to be able to
agree if there are even rules of composition, and even those who say there are
such rules admit that sometimes they have to be or can be broken.

I like subjective comments.  If anyone making such comments wants to take it
upon themselves to use their own scoring system, then so be it.  But, if we have
scoring for everyone, then we have "winners and losers", and I don't think PUG's
about that.

If someone wants their photo rated that way, they can submit it to photo.net.

My 2 cents, anyway...

cheers,
frank
