In terms of utility, however, one would probably instead consider something like
(fluency)^3 * (size of speaking population) * (a normalizing constant)
in which case the utility of my Orc fluency is dismal. Being one of the three or four fluent speakers of Orc is not very useful.
I appreciate the sentiment though. :)
