I know - I think you don't do the reverse of that nearly often enough though.

A lot of times the post time favorite or one of the shorter prices that you correctly identify as "most likely" is also "the best value" ... I don't notice you labeling many 6/5 shots as "best value" ... but relative to the other options in the race .. sometime they are the best value even at short odds.

And with extreme favorites - take the Sunland race that Plum Pretty won by 20+ lengths over a bunch of total goats - the best value should have been a non existant horse called "nobuddy"

I'm not trying to give you a hard time at all - as this is more about 'the wording of terms' than anything else.
