I've read the study. Rating/feedback is a part of what I do professionally. Not sure if you read it, but the tasks they asked people to rate themselves on were humor, grammar and logic

I see your late 90s psycho mumbo jumbo and I raise you a 2010+ psycho mumbo jumbo ala Marcus Buckingham's "Idiosyncratic Rater Bias"

Big term, but it simply means that we human beings are unreliable raters of other human beings. All the data show that when I rate you, over 60% of your rating is about me, and not you. Which is a big problem, because we are paying, promoting, training, and deploying you based on that rating — which doesn’t reflect you. So ratings are a terrible performance measurement tool, because they claim to measure one thing but actually measure another.

Ever had a prof that was a "tough grader?" That's idiosyncratic rater bias.
Your assessment of me mostly comes from something unique about you.
*puts sunglasses back on* In other words, you're probably just jealous of my elfchievements
