Because if one person says 2+2=4, and one person says 8, you should definitely go with 6.
A ranking should tell you something about the relative probability of who would win a game of football. You could rank teams by number of players with last names in the first half of the alphabet, which would be a perfectly objective and well-defined ranking, but it doesn’t tell you a darn thing about who is likely to win football games.
