It's an Inferred importance method, as other users have commented it is likely that there are some calibration metrics in there. MaxDiff is the name of the approach if you want to check out more.

You may not have realised but I wager the dominant majority of Lemmy's userbase is American. So the dominant discussion will be focused on America.
I agree with you, it is not limited to America. But all any of us can really offer here is an anecdote.
Anecdotally I watched my partner go through this is in Australia for PCOS. Many doctors seem to be unable to reconcile that they don't know literally everything.
It was a day trip around Port Phillip bay in Melbourne, Victoria. This particular photo was near the Brisbane Ranges.
This was a morning ride I'll never forget. For about ten minutes on this road I was riding towards a rainbow which seemed just around the corner. At one stage a hawk or eagle of some kind was scared out of the tree I was riding past and flew parallel to me for about 5 seconds.
Most importantly, after a 500km round trip mostly in the rain, I successfully returned home with a 1kg bag of heavily discounted coffee beans.
Cocaine at bedtime

(I have this issue and if any does have a recommendation hit me)
A cheapo film camera! Basically a disposable camera in terms of quality and technology, but you can reload the film instead.
Slsk /Winamp for life. If it ain't broke don't fix it.
Depends on the breed. Some breeds never stop growing fur (ha), others have short fur which molts with the seasons. Angora rabbits are too much knowledge the most in need of trimming. Rexes don't need any help. But my god do they need to learn how to use a vacuum cleaner.
And I'm sure inevitably, the site will become harder to run as more and more companies enter the shit list. Over time - features will be cut to save effort. List entry will be out sourced. The company itself, of course, will not see the irony. Finally - a new website emerges to track the enshittification of enshittification tracking websites. And the prophecy continues.
I miss that game. Not much tickles the same creativity and playfulness that I've tried since then. I used to spend hours in the level creator doing dumb stuff.
You're bang on. It's called MaxDiff. I use it frequently in my line of work to prioritise product or service messaging with panel data. It's better in some cases to use Inferred preference rather than stated, but generally good to keep the options comparable in "size" of offer.
I would never interpret a MaxDiff model low end result as "wow, 5% of people want slower browsers." Instead I'm focusing on the top cluster. As with any model, they're only ever so accurate. Don't read into the questions too much.
