The out of 10 is the worst. People rate okay at a 7 and good at 8

That is consistent with US grading scales where 70% is a C and 80% is a B.

It is stupid, but it tracks.

Wasted numbers that inflate the rating, no one uses 0 1 2 3 or even 4. bad is at 6 and horrible is 5

...and very good at a 9 and exceptional at a 10.

Sounds like a good scale to me. You need headroom for a really good experience.

It also allows a lot of room for bad experiences, which is important.

"They tried their best but failed" could be a 5. "This is a scam and I am lucky I wasn't caught" could be a 1. "It was bad, plus they had a bad attitude" could be a 3.

Uh no because they rate bad at 6 and terrible at 5
