Harry is not a 4, he is a 6!!! His boyishness marks him down from his looks which should put him squarely at 7. That's why Timeless Harry is an 8, age improved both the looks and the demeanor.
 
In our universe, Garret Wang back then was a 9 or a ten, and Harry Kim would have been an 11.

In the Star Trek Universe, just think about who is in the Star Trek universe and how often you have ever seen someone who does not look like a model reading a script stating that they are at the very least a super genius brain surgeon.

Harry Kim is a 4.
 
No. Because these super model super genius brain surgeons are intimidating. I know they would have nothing in common with me, I would just be one of those little people hanging about, being unevolved and lazy. You know how they look down on the Dabo girls? That would be how they looked at me, without all the tittering over hotness.

Harry would notice me. AND more importantly I would find him perfectly easy and natural to talk to, he would be so impressed that me, a female, was all friendly like with him that he wouldn't notice or care that I was a parasite sucking off the Federation's teat and avoiding bettering myself.
 
I think she's using the 4 not as on a Looks Scale 1-10, but Intelligence Scale 1-10. Not sure whether the 4 is a high or low in how she's calculating it.

This forums best friend called standard Harry a 6, and 45 year old Harry from Timeless a 7.

She likes wrinkles and grey.

The sexist degrading 1 - 10 scale I first saw in a Dean Martin/Jerry Lewis movie, I then saw it thoroughly cemented into the zeitgeist with the 1979 Dudley Moore/Bo Derek romp 10, which then continued to be used constantly in every American Sitcom thereafter up until today and probably tomorrow as well.
 
Who is this forum's best friend?

I have my own personal rating system which I amuse myself on long train journeys applying to every person on the carriage. It goes from 0 to 4 and there have only ever been a handful of 4's. Weeks go by with no one above a 2. In my personal system Harry would get a 3, though this could be downgraded depending on what he was wearing and there would be potential to upgrade him if he was looking cheerful and wearing a non-hipster geekish shirt and unfortunate shoes.

I guess I really do think Harry is cute.
 
All I see in that face are the puffed out cheeks of a Listerian Gerbil.

I have a binary approach... "Wow" vs. "meh".
 
It's interesting you should say that because a while back I tried a new rating system, very simple.. "yes" or "no". And damn it if there weren't like 95% yes's. It seems when no longer called upon to form an judgement of scale I'm suddenly all woot about everybody.
 
There likely should be some sort of "teacake Classic", where you re-ask those questions from your favorite closed polls of years gone by.
