How would that do any good? And what good exactly would it do?

I like my feed being personalized to who I am. I am unique. I'm not like anyone else.

Then you can personalize it... manually, using deterministic filters. Ideally, the algorithm just wouldn't be black box anymore.

I wholeheartedly agree with this.
