If I get asked to rate something it's probably going to be a 4 or a 3 unless it's bad, 5 means as good as it can be and unless a 6 gets added then it's unrealistic to give a 5

This is actually dumber. Rating is about how well the person felt about spending the money whereas everyone really wants to know how good of a whatever it is

So you really want to know it's an 85 out of a hundred on an absolute scale but all you know is how people felt about spending a certain amount of money which may not even be the amount of money the merchant is changing.

So 4 might mean people felt pretty good about spending $10 but you are being asked by Joe Bob merchant to pay 20

I mean if I'm being asked to rate something then it's likely they're asking for a rating of the actual service and by asking they've degraded the quality of the service.
