Two people with wildly different views can occupy the same space
Not completely. If two people occupy a similar space, it means they agreed on something. That is meaningful. It’s vague, sure. But it isn’t completely random nonsense like astrology.
It doesn’t. Someone with a “left” view and a “right” view can cancel each other out, occupying the same space as someone with a “neutral” view. It’s worthless.
Plus, someone can say they are for something, but actually not support it in reality.

Only if the person with a left view also has a right view. And only if the other person with the right view has a left view.
You seem confused. The point of it isn’t to give a fully accurate explanation of a person’s views on every topic. It’s to give somebody a general idea.

All political measurements fall victim to that. It’s a moot point. But just because some people are like that doesn’t mean everyone is.

Sure it does. I already explained how.
You failed to. It gives an inaccurate view that misleads the user. What matters is what a person actually supports.
