    The initiator wanted to introduce a new kind of look at countries, to not only look and value and rank them by gdp or happiness index but by their contributions to outside their own country. They call this good, as in doing good things rather than selfish things.

    ‘Better’ is a ranking of ‘goodness’ as well.

    That side, do you see no good in hierarchy at all?

      Correct, I’m an anarchist. Hierarchy is one of the most harmful things that currently exists. I wish to live in a world without it. I genuinely cannot think of a single instance of where my life has been, or could be, improved by hierarchy, only worsened.
