I wouldn't call that drivel- obtuse maybe. I think the reality is it's important to care about how many of the eyeballs who watch your movie, listen to your talk, or try out your new product are glazed. That is the percent of people who bothered to respond vs. the total number who responded. With Netflix (or IMDB reviews) I would rather watch a polarizing film where the majority of viewers felt they needed to voice their praise or disgust than one that illicits a non-response.
