The project claims unrealistic reach ('everyone') and traction ('most people have used my product') without providing verifiable metrics, resulting in heavily penalized scores. While the underlying concept of a board game café holds standard real-world utility, the submission lacks the detail, technical innovation, or realistic data required for a higher rating.
