By limiting the ways we rate things, they limit the way we think. It's Newspeak from 1984.

How does that work exactly?

Oh, and Meta is fine.

Read 1984 by George Orwell for the full reference. Basically Newspeak is a language everyone is being pushed to use in the book that has less words in it and limits the way you can modify words, making it more difficult to express thoughts that the state doesn't want you to have. The line of thinking is that as people lose the ability to express those thoughts, eventually they also lose the ability to have those thoughts.

So post ratings over cool points and those ratings should be easily identifiable to newcomers.

That makes perfect sense!
