If it would have been an inherent well-defined trait of an object
itself, it would have been objective comparison. As this quantity
is defined purely (and no real measurable traits other than
consistency were proposed) by observing subject, it can't be an
objective measurement and this objective comparison.
Objective comparison is something like comparing average amount
of extra symbols per lexer token between two code styles.
