Ewww.

Rather than do that, why not just let people pick from a 1-9 scale, and 
if they want it more coarse, they can ignore every other digit?

Letting people pick their own scale will create problems - someone thinks 
they picked a scale of 3, but the app saw it as a scale of 9, so instead 
of giving the top rating, they give one of 33%?

No way....
