My specific proposal is to use several different methods of ordering the tasks by the votes given (value divided by cost estimate) and taking a subset which is highly ranked in all the different methods of evaluation (except for the ill-defined one which divides the mean by the spread of the votes). This is the set for which it is possible to give the robust answer that it is preferred by the people casting the votes. When I do that with the top 10, I get 6 which are ranked in all the methods. Even just using mean and median should at least make this a bit more resilient. I do not find the word ordinality in my dictionary. What does it mean exactly?
