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 →

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 And how do you see the reservation thing overall? Like there are other kinds of reservations also, like in Karnataka. Um, I recently noticed that I can travel in a bus. I don't have to pay anything.

A So I think that is my initiative because we already have, um, I would put some of those things as fairly harmless, right? But one of the things that happens is that if you look at people on the road, um, you find that women generally use public transport largely. And men have motorcycles and, uh, other means of transport. This is broadly the demographic. I'm not saying no woman rides a bike or no woman drives a car. Of course they do. But the point is that largely women are users of public transport or would like to be able to use public transport or they walk on the streets to get to work. Now, um, providing free Transport, uh, for women in, uh, buses in, in Karnataka, I think, uh, just reduces one friction point for women to be able to get to work. Um, one, uh, thing, of course you need to, this should not mean that you just have the same number of buses, uh, and then just make the buses more crowded and, and all that. I think it's, it's, it's important to Also, along with it, invest the money to, you can't just do that by inconveniencing, uh, passengers and just packing them into the buses. You need more buses.

Q So you are in a way, as you said, increasing the size of the pie, right?

A I think that's what it is, no? I mean, why do we, uh, have, in fact, even when you look at our intense competition that we have to get into colleges in India, the intense, um, amount of competition that we have to get into the UPSC and jobs, et cetera. All these are because of shortages, right? And, and instead, and then we, we're all talking about whether this community should get this reservation or that, or how it should be split up. I think there's one thing to. Increase. I think, again, I just go back to it. Let's just focus on, we need affirmative action, and I'm not, um, against affirmative action. I, I honestly believe that some states have done extremely well through affirmative action, and, uh, that's been a positive thing for our country as a whole, but, uh, you can't keep getting very, very micro about it, then it becomes difficult.
