Rating metrics:
Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some albums can have several thousand ratings)
This album has a Bayesian average rating of 69.5/100, a mean average of 69.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 69.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.5.

I'll be damned if this isn't the greatest homework album ever.
I like a lot of the songs, but put back to back to back like this it starts to feel like a barrage of half-completed ideas. And especially with an album this big (almost two hours), its lacking that certain unity that makes it feel like a whole. I would recommend looking at it, and listening to it, as if it were 4 different EPs, which it kindof is. That would probably make it a little more managable.
The four side long suites have very little in common with most of NIN's discography, but it is still very very good. Much more difficult to get into, but rewarding if given a chance.
I love this album. Especially 01 Ghosts I, but the entire thing is pretty breathtaking.
I need to check out more ambient stuff.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
