While this is probably the most neutral scheme a few questions arise to me. If its not coming from the users, who is going to do the evaluation? According to which criteria/set of standards? The result might also be too complex for new users (for which this rating system was intended in the first place), so we also need some defined procedure (e.g. weighted scores of the categories) to cut it down to a few easily understood levels (like we have now in the hangar, i.e. alpha, early production, production, maybe not that developer centric). I favour school grades over stars because you get a decimal for finer distinction. Anyway I like the idea of having 'Stiftung Warentest' (THE german consumer goods evaluator) for aircraft.
