I understand what you're saying but I still stand firmly in my grade school belief that any star the teacher put's on my paper is above and beyond my actual grade and as such is a Kudo. I do not believe that any star rating should ever be taken as a demerit or failing grade of some sort, regardless of whether or not it's commented. That's why I take offence at people whining over 1 star ratings as if they're some sort of punishment. I understand though that people DO take 1 stars as an offence and because of that I am more than likely to not rate anything at all.
