Set Rating Meaning

Hi All - - I am a long time collector, but rather new to the PSA Set Registry.
Can someone add some definition to how the Set Rating is calculated? I fully understand the Weighted GPA with different weights assigned to star and other more valuable cards,
but am not clear on Set Rating. If there is a good definition (or better yet an example) that I overlooked on the PSA website, please let me know.
Thanks.

I think I figured it out....the Set Rating is calculated by factoring in the percentage of set completion with the weighted GPA..
If anyone wants to add to this or clarify, please feel free to do so.
Thanks again.

The other issue with the weighting is that it varies tremendously from set to set. The spread on the 1969 Topps baseball (and most large baseball sets I assume) is pretty flat with probably 600+ cards given a weight of 1. Compare that to some small hockey sets, for example where the weighting is all over the board. In the big scheme of things this may be minor but it does bug me as I move between the sets that I collect. I always feel that there are one or two collectors that are doing the actual weighting and not PSA.
