There's also non-medical health criteria (like someone who believes that something is bad for them or their family even if a doctor doesn't agree, such as just refusing factory food on grounds you don't know wht's in it), and even [[legal criteria]] (if you are under some obligation to buy only certain types of things, which is usually the case if you are buying for a company or some organization), and probably more... we need some [[user story]] attempts here:  vignettes that describe how Consumerium would really be used in practice to guide certain decisions.

:For example, an institution might choose not to demand or purchase goods that it must compete for against destitute individuals.
::Would this practice of non-competition differ from the ''typically confidential'' non-competition clauses commonly seen in written contracts?
:::Only in that an institution would probably broadcast that it was refusing to compete and raise prices of scarce goods - or, perhaps better, would let poorer people participate and gain economies of scale when institutions buy things.
::::Or the attached strings would include a "no [[reverse engineering|reverse engineer]]" clause
