The core of data science is our fundamental understanding about data intelligence processes for transforming data to decisions. One aspect of this understanding is how to analyze the cost-benefit of data intelligence workflows. This work is built on the information-theoretic metric proposed by Chen and Golan for this purpose and several recent studies and applications of the metric. We present a set of extended interpretations of the metric by relating the metric to encryption, compression, model development, perception, cognition, languages, and news media.
