    This method is needed for picking the best impact on which we are going to base backmapping (getting type and severity from impact). As Impacts like any ordering (there is no "best" impact, all of them are equal) we just need to ensure that our choice is consistent to make sure we always pick the same impact when the list (map) of impacts is the same.
