>Numbers don’t really say much unless you pin them to what they’re measuring That's why it has the label "attractive"

  Sigh, there's always one. The point is that's not a sufficiently clear definition of what's being measured. Someone I find attractive you might find unattractive, because it's a subjective attribute, so 'attractiveness' isn't an unambiguous description of what the algorithm is actually measuring.

    If it’s a feature for making people who try your system at a trade show feel good about themselves as they said, it works best if it’s not measuring anything at all.

    have you read the thread you're participating in? I digress, surely naming is really hard. there's a sweet spot to hit short and sufficiently explanative. Perhaps this didn't hit it for you, but it probably did for the target audience, and if it didn't, they could call support for the product they paid for.
