How we pick the alternatives

Each smart telescope we track gets a score against this one. Price similarity counts for 45% (on a log scale, so the gap is relative). Field-of-view class counts for 25% (wide, mid or narrow by the short side of the frame). Overlap in the objects both frame well counts for 30%. A lower price breaks ties. Prices are the official prices we last checked. We never rank by commission.
