    You ask someone “How’s life?” they’re likely to say “Alright” or “Not bad”.

    You ask “How’s the knee doing?” or “You still saving for that cruise?” and you’ll get a much more detailed answer which may completely contradict the original “Not bad”.

      Is that the methodology used here? I’d have guessed the Overall was an aggregate of the subcategories, not it’s own question. I wonder if the overall would be lower if it was asked last, after considering all the other areas.
