I do it intentionally when rating things because I know most people only look at the total score, usually only high or low ratings will affect that score, and I assume many other people are doing the same thing.
The same effect is seen in politics and in the culture war once people started getting hyper-political. Everything became a negotiation tactic from extremes, hoping to win the middle. It's probably something from Game Theory.
