I'm not looking for harmful. Perhaps a different example. 2 students both score 1550 on SAT. One through hard work and dedication. The other through natural ability with very little effort. Or 2 athletes, musicians, etc...

Basically, do you weigh effort in equal results? Do you penalize people for bare minimum? If you considered Mozart and Beethoven equals, would you add merit to Beethoven as an over achiever or deduct Mozart as an under achiever?
