The Exchanges

Every argument clarity score on this site is built from rows on this page. Each question and answer was assessed with names hidden, the host's own answers included, on four things from 1 to 5: directness (does it answer the question asked), coherence (do the ideas follow), precision (concrete details and clear references), compression (says a lot per word). The weighted mix (30/30/25/15) is the exchange score. A person's published score averages their exchange scores on raw tape only, at least 8 of them, shrunk toward the cohort mean. Full method →

Carrie Gross no published score: no usable exchanges on raw tape, and a fair score needs 8+ record → ← everyone

Every exchange below was scored with names hidden, four dimensions each from 1 to 5. An exchange's score is 0.30·directness + 0.30·coherence + 0.25·precision + 0.15·compression. The published score averages the raw tape exchange scores and shrinks small samples toward the cohort mean, so five great answers can't beat twenty good ones. Produced feed rows count only toward coarse estimates, never toward a full score.

Q Yeah. So you guys, so you agreed to go on a date, and obviously, Carrie, you've learned that Dennis is a A dermatologist. And Dennis, you learn about Carrie's background. And what do you guys remember about, I mean, what did you talk about? Where did you connect over?

A Skin. Are you kidding? So I grew up in California. I had sun damage. I was on the beach almost my entire life or a tennis court or, and I was in my thirties and I was seeing signs of aging and I was spending a lot of time and energy and money on my skin. So I would shop the beauty counters, I would go to spas, and I thought I was doing the best I could, and then I met Dennis and had a conversation about what was really happening with my skin, and what, what my future was gonna look like, and I have to tell you, he gave me such hope and optimism, because in my experience, like, I went to a dermatologist for poison ivy.
