Yes. You have to adapt to the perception people have in their minds. If you're going to work on a 10-point scale and people can't wrap their minds around the fact that you're grading on the curve, then adapt to your readers and grade it 1-9 instead.
This slow erosion of points has made it so that 7/10 is a horrible score and that's ridiculous. There should be no question that the scoring system is broken and could do with a reset, which would be easier to do than you'd think (presuming everyone was agreed on it)
