I think the [categorical imperative](https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/kant-moral/) is often trivialized as “basically the age-old adage of ‘the Golden Rule’”, whereas it is a more nuanced idea, especially in the context of related philosophical theories. Pending further study, I myself would not really know what it is about, and I would honestly rather remove the Kant reference from your question, and make use of your own principle. I think you are asking about analyzing how criteria placed on the local level (of questions themselves) magnify to the experienced quality of the entire site, as a user, on the global level. That’s a perfectly decent question to ask. I suggest we study the question systematically, using computer modeling, if possible.
