It does bear on my original point; the teachers I’ve had that used such a system indicated that we had a score of 0; each assignment was worth a specified number of points (not a percentage score), and we would get up to that many points added to our score by completing it. It just seemed to me that you wouldn’t object under such a system, but I guess you don’t feel that way.
That’s an interesting question, of course, but it’s not one that directly bears on the issue here.
I don’t actually know the answer.
