• you don't go to two sites and get a different "SAT" score. (fwar bwar)
• you don't decide based on different standards of calculating intelligence, SAT vs IQ (fwar vs bwar)
• you don't hold the same weight a 4.4 from joe blow high school vs a 4.4 smarty pants private school. (fwar bwar)

you can also support an argument for who is the best player with fWAR, and others can say "yea, but fWAR doesn't value ERA, what about ERA?" what about wins?"

it's not a contraction at all, you just agreed to them being arbitrary lol. you just said it right here. you are determining on a whim by which you want to calculate and determine who is the best.
