Other Factors: Books that agree or Disagree



I believe that tracking the number of books suggested as reasons to agree or disagree with a conclusion could help develop algorithms that promote beliefs that have been thoroughly examined and supported.

Here's the best equation I've come up with for adding points to a belief based on the number and quality of books suggested as reasons to support or disagree with a conclusion:

Points = Σ(BS * BLS)

I'd appreciate your feedback on this approach and its potential effectiveness in promoting well-examined ideas.

Below is an explanation of each term:

B = Books that have been said to support or oppose the given conclusion
BS = Book Score, which can take into account the number of books sold, scores given by book reviewers, etc.
BLS = Book Link Score, which evaluates how well a book supports the proposed belief. Each argument that a book supports a belief becomes its own argument, and the book's "linkage score" is assigned points based on the equation provided above.
