actual totalitarian governments have existed and they have not used such a metric (AFAIK).
Linear programming was invented in the Soviet Union to centrally plan production with a single computational optimization.
Still sounds like their metric was just economic utility from production, that does not encompass many other policy goals (like security, criminal justice etc).
