Does anyone rank/score their OKRs?

Say I have a set of 5 OKRs including 3 that are committed and 2 that are aspirational. So something like this...

  1. OKR 1 (Committed – High Priority) → 50
  2. OKR 2 (Committed – Medium-High Priority)20
  3. OKR 3 (Committed – Medium Priority)15
  4. OKR 4 (Aspirational – Low Priority)10
  5. OKR 5 (Aspirational – Lowest Priority)5

I can think of three possible reasons this might be useful:

  1. You want a way to clearly communicate priority among OKRs, say in a dashboard/wallboard widget
  2. You want to add a consistent/transparent way of accounting for OKR priority in you model for scoring ideas.
  3. You want to sort ideas or work by the score of the OKRs that they relate to.

#2 might be useful if you separate Objectives from Key Results in your Goals model in Atlas (and score both).  And especially if you also have sub-OKRs that ideas can contribute to as well.

I don't think that this is a common practice and right now it's not even possible in Atlas/JPD, and there's no API to roll your own.  Wondering just conceptually if you think this would be useful or if it's overkill.
