Please explain better: so I feel like benefit/cost is necessary.

Whenever the benefit is 0 in the Cost/Benefit you immediatly understand the choice is "not worth it" Hmm, I guess well my thinking has to do with, as the benefit in cost/benefit approaches 0, the overall number taken from that division approaches infinity. As such, when trying to look between the cost/benefit between a number of items, wouldn't it make sense to find the inverse anyway? Because if you're looking for what choice is "worth it", then it seems to make more sense for the highest number to win - it's the "most worth it", but if you're approaching infinity for the "least worth it", then, well, why not take inverse anyway?

I know this is sort of a simple-minded way of thinking on this, and that's it's just really a matter of presentation for me, but, well, you asked :P. Benefit/cost isn't necessary, no. But does its appearance in a comparison table make more sense? I think so, at least.
