I think this missed the point. Its those individual votes which are
candidates for hreview, not the aggregate data.
I'm also pretty sure
that some professional reviewers for papers, reviewing movies, will
rate in
0.5 increments, but I have no idea how common that is.
The start..end syntax is quite a nice shorthand for defining a range,
more typographic than mathematical though.
I like "..." for being more user friendly, but it may also be more
difficult
to deal with when parsing. Any input?
In my opinion, programming language syntax is not the same as "what
people do on the web." To have a more productive discussion here,
lets focus on "what do people do, on the web, to denote the range of
the rating in their reviews?"
