My take is that 6-7 is the “kids can be pretty great sometimes”, with room for “I have one or more that I really care about”. 8 is for those people who just get legitimate pure joy out of kids. Usually grandparents or certain types of educators. 9 is creepy, and 10 is vile.
5 is neutral, and it gets logarithmically worse as you move away from it, like the pH scale
I read it as it being undefined with equal propensity for diddling children and murdering them
5 is Jeffrey Dahmer
“no propensity” is still equal. :)
