The fact is that people do pay for their research so even though you and I don't care, others do in fact value their ratings. This is meaningful as it gives credence to crypto assets to that audience regardless of what we think.
I have not seen one positive reception to their ratings. There's been nothing but universal flabbergastiness. There no doubt is the desire for something thorough and credible. This is not it and credible ratings would be much, much uglier than these ones.
