No number can encompass all that.

Maybe they should have a combo number would get us closer. But, still, the actual governing body must be completely impartial and logical in their rating. But also, we have to make a reality check on the priority of the rating in our own environments. Using your example, a 10 rating might be a 1 for that airgapped machine---judgement call.
