É muito difícil responder a essa pergunta sem spoilers significativos.
Sobre a única coisa que posso dizer a céu aberto é que o que você está vendo em termos de pontos não é realmente toda a história; há aspectos que você não entende que farão com que tudo faça sentido. Eu explicarei mais na seção sobre spoiler abaixo, mas eu realmente não recomendaria olhar para ele se você estiver apenas no primeiro episódio - tudo será explicado.
The assignment of points (as explained) is meaningless; things are not what they seem.
The whole dilemma, as presented at the point you are watching, is that our Heroine has found her self erroneously placed in the Good Place, and is trying to figure out how to not end up being tossed into the Bad Place when the mistake is discovered. She knows a mistake must have been made (and that she should own up to it), but she's hoping to improve enough to earn her right to stay in the Good Place by the time it comes to light.
Actually, she's exactly where she's supposed to be.. She just doesn't understand the full picture. Yet.
Eu recomendo strongmente que você NÃO leia o próximo spoiler. Isso dará um ponto de plotagem MAJOR .
She's actually in the Bad place, and all but a few of her fellow 'Good Place' residents are demons. The whole place is an experiment in setting them up to torture themselves and each other with minimal involvement from the demons. The points and everything else mean nothing -- they are all just to provide verisimilitude, and keep things confusing so as to make it harder for them to catch on to what's really going on.
There really is a point system that determines their place in the afterlife (in this case, relegating them to the Bad Place), but they are having things explained to them by an unreliable narrator, in effect, so what he says about any individual assignment of points is not necessarily anything to do with how they are/were really assigned (were, since assignment at end-of-life is supposed to be the end of it - but more on that in the next season...) Eating a sandwich MIGHT give you good points for some reason (since he does stick to a lot of the truth, only lying when useful), but given the unreliable nature of the narrator, we have no way to know.
