Playing devil's advocate here. Is the outrage towards this kind of system essentially a criticism of the technology? Specifically, can we guarantee that the system would be secure and can we guarantee that the system is accurate (objective) and not subject to human manipulation?
If we hypothetically assume that the system is hacker-proof enough and accurate enough for all practical purposes, is there still an underlying moral reason not to implement this system? I instinctively feel that it is wrong, but I just don't know what it is.
I think we all unconsciously rate people in our social interactions. Maybe to explicitly quantitate that rating solidifies it and makes social mobility harder? Our fuziness in our unconscious rating of people gives leeway for others chances to redeem themselves or not? Whereas in a system like this, people are more likely to be stuck where they are?
