Though very useful, these provide more objective qualitee/kwalitee information about a release.
The suggested inspector is something about statistics, and th interpretation of statistics is subjective.
e.g. A release might have full documentation that is way better than the docs of any other module on CPAN, but it is delivered in a high standard set of pdf/odt/docx/html/pod/man separate from the .pm file itself icluding a search engine, a graphical fully configurable Wx/Tk GUI just for the docs and ... (ok, I'll stop, just let your fantasy do the job here). As .pod is detected by M::C::A but *not* by the suggested introspection. Next to that, this new analysis just looks at the number of code/comment/blank/doc lines, not at their content, nor at the spelling or the completeness of covering the actual code. It is completely up to the user to weigh the given numbers. You just cannot come to a guide of what is healthy. I therefor think this new suggested module is fun but (for now) lacks real use for indicating quality.
