 Isn’t that just a metric of how confident you are about doing nothing? 
 I mean, maybe we simply cannot be neutral because we’re conscious and constantly observing and being observed by other conscious beings… you’re a datum in some respects for a reference to neutral but your actual relation to neutrality is subjective pretty tough to get away from that, leaving inaction as a requirement to persevere a “neutral” status. Then you get worried about bias… dammit man, I’m not a wire with a uniform potential of zero!
