Not really. They are very good at describing the technical impact. Sometimes pre-condition is very rare and that reduces overall likelihood but for those few it applies, the impact still could be catastrophic. Who wants to risk it if whole business could go down?
So if I get a 9.8 that doesn't apply to my usage, what is the CVSS score doing for me?
