While {\it tori} and {\it riq} remove the largest systematic problems with
citation counts, they are citation-derived measures and, as such,
they necessarily suffer from two systematic problems of citation
counts which
do not lend themselves to programmatic solutions. First, it is not in
general possible to tell the differing contributions of various
co-authors to a paper ({\it tori} assumes all authors contribute equally ---
a technique obviously more correct in the aggregate than for any individual paper).
Modifications, such as giving extra weight to the first (or last) author are necessarily ad hoc and discipline-dependent stratagems. The second fundamental problem with the use of citations for the evaluation of
individuals is that citations chiefly measure usefulness
While usefulness can be correlated with importance, these are clearly
different concepts; oftentimes, importance is what is actually desired.
