    How do you weigh a Don’t Want with Want Most? A 0.1 weighting is much more useful than a negative weighting. And it is rightfully phrased so.

      I would weigh a don’t want the same as want least. I just had a couple situations where two options were both “don’t want,” and I wish I could have communicated that instead of picking one to be in the middle. I don’t think the same should be true of “want most” though, I should be forced to rank those. But for two things I really don’t care about, ordering doesn’t convey any extra useful information.
