I have kept the toxicity benchmark 5 points below the mean, ergo, in total 7 parameters, i.e., 70 points, mean is 35, hence, if your team scores above 30, it is not toxic. Below 30, it is.
So, mention and rate your team according to these factors.
Feel free to add more factors. Keep the toxicity red line -5 from the mean, i.e., if you add 3 extra factors, then total points become 100. Hence, 50 will be mean, so 45 or above will be non-toxic.
Below it, it's toxic.
