If there were a betterness scale, I believe that it would have to have certain coordinates. Take for example the quality of a mystical experience. Such an experience is then judged by the judges. Now a mystical experience in an insane asylum would be low value, an identical mystical experience in a church during some fundamental social upheaval may be of high value.
So, the coordinates to judge betterness, must have localization components, temporal component, and relevance components, to provide strength of betterness. In other words quality is a function of where something happened, when it happened, and what happened. This would be a five dimensional plot since location takes 3 coordinates. The end measure of betterness is then the combination of all factors in some kind of set theory or something. If we then ascribe optimal values for each coordinate and rank the resulting quality in question, perhaps a measurement of direction is possible. Can you do something with this?
