Good question on the dead zone case. Right now the system presents the raw reachability overlap rather than penalising anyone's zone explicitly. If someone is in a transit dead zone, their isochrone simply ends up smaller, which naturally constrains the overlap area. The Fairness Score then measures how equitably the resulting venues sit within that overlap — so a venue that’s at the edge of the smaller zone gets scored lower than one closer to the true intersection. It’s implicit rather than explicit penalization, which feels more honest than artificially adjusting one person’s weight.

On ratings — yes, already in. Google Places rating is factored into the venue ranking inside the overlap zone, so the output isn’t just the fairest spot geographically but the best-reviewed option within the fair zone. The two signals are combined rather than sequential. The gap I’m still working on is price level — Google Places has a price tier field but it’s inconsistently populated, which makes it not very reliable as a filter right now.
