With Denmark #1 out of 128 countries on the Social Progress Index, it appears that one vindicated public policy is having a lot of Danes. https://www.socialprogressindex.com/?tab=2&code=DNK Trump's Norwegians are tied for 3rd.

how much of the residual on Singapore is simply due to biases in the opinions of the reviewers about its political choices?

It's not so easy to bias these things. See the factor reliability analyses. The factor is not strongly affected by which random subset of indicators one chooses.https://openpsych.net/paper/28

Reference appreciated-- my point concerned the interpretation of certain items listed under "personal rights" and "press freedom," but I think the most likely conclusion is that my preferences simply differ in certain slight but relevant respects from the western liberal norm.

I would rather ban street protests than have to cross one to get into my building to go to work, for instance. I would rather ban libel and enforce the ban stringently than allow the media to more actively mislead the public. Things like that.

If so, then considering the likely audience, the factor score is probably correct for the average reader and the perceived deviation is merely relative to my subjective policy preferences.

As I said, it doesn't matter if you exclude the political indicators you don't like.

In approximate terms, certainly. I am aware the effect is small, but it _is_ directed in the manner that I described. Robustness, yes, but not immutability.
