Sounds a bit like a McNamara Fallacy [0] of over-prioritizing numeric measures, which--when taken "too literally"--becomes: > The first step is to measure whatever can be easily measured. This is okay as far as it goes. > The second step is to disregard that which can't be easily measured or give it an arbitrary quantitative value. This is artificial and misleading. > The third step is to presume that what can't be measured easily really isn't very important. This is blindness. > The fourth step is to say that what can't be easily measured really doesn't exist. This is suicide. — Daniel Yankelovich, "The New Odds" [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McNamara_fallacy |
