Classification Decision Rules:

Metric 1: TimelineDeviation Scoring
- If TimelineDeviation > 15: Add 3 points to APPROVAL score
- If 12 < TimelineDeviation ≤ 15: 
  * Add 2.5 points to APPROVAL score
  * If ParadoxCount < 3: Carefully preserve APPROVAL potential
    - Reduce bonus only by 0.25 points
    - Introduce compensatory mechanism for low ParadoxCount
- If 10 < TimelineDeviation ≤ 12: 
  * Add 2 points to APPROVAL score
  * If ParadoxCount < 2: 
    - Minimal DENIAL point addition (0.25-0.5)
    - Preserve APPROVAL trajectory
- If 8 < TimelineDeviation ≤ 10: 
  * Add 1.5 points to APPROVAL score
  * If ParadoxCount ≤ 1: 
    - Add only 0.5 point to DENIAL score
    - Maintain APPROVAL potential
- If 7 < TimelineDeviation ≤ 8: 
  * Add 1 point to APPROVAL score
  * If ParadoxCount ≤ 0.5: 
    - Add 0.75-1 point to DENIAL score
    - More conservative penalty for very low ParadoxCount
- If 5 ≤ TimelineDeviation < 7: 
  * Interpolate 1-1.5 points to DENIAL score
  * If ParadoxCount is extremely low (≤ 0): Moderate additional 0.5-1 point DENIAL penalty
- If TimelineDeviation < 5: Add 2-2.5 points to DENIAL score

Metric 2: ParadoxCount Scoring
- If ParadoxCount > 6: Add 3 points to APPROVAL score
- If 4 < ParadoxCount ≤ 6: 
  * Add 2.5 points to APPROVAL score
  * If TimelineDeviation < 9: Reduced bonus of 0.25-0.5 points
- If 3 < ParadoxCount ≤ 4: 
  * Add 2 points to APPROVAL score
  * Careful interpolation if TimelineDeviation is < 8
- If 2 < ParadoxCount ≤ 3: 
  * Add 1.5 points to APPROVAL score
  * Minor compensatory mechanism for TimelineDeviation > 10
- If 1 < ParadoxCount ≤ 2: 
  * Add 0.75-1 point to DENIAL score
  * Preserve partial APPROVAL potential
- If 0 < ParadoxCount ≤ 1: 
  * Add 1.5-2 points to DENIAL score
  * More aggressive penalty if TimelineDeviation is low
- If ParadoxCount ≤ 0: 
  * Add 2.5-3 points to DENIAL score
  * Progressive penalty scaling with absolute value

Negative ParadoxCount Special Handling:
- If ParadoxCount < 0:
  * If absolute(ParadoxCount) ≤ 1: Add 3 points to DENIAL score
  * If absolute(ParadoxCount) > 1 AND ≤ 2: 
    - Add 3.5 points to DENIAL score
    - Reduce APPROVAL potential by 1 point
  * If absolute(ParadoxCount) > 2:
    - Add 4 points to DENIAL score
    - Strongly reduce APPROVAL potential

Critical Interaction Mechanisms:
- Metric Balance Coefficient:
  * Calculate ratio between TimelineDeviation and ParadoxCount
  * If ratio indicates high imbalance (one metric > 3x the other):
    - Add 0.5-0.75 point penalty to lower-value score
    - More nuanced reduction for borderline cases
  * Introduce progressive interaction bonus for complementary metrics

Compensatory and Edge Case Mechanisms:
- For TimelineDeviation 9-12 AND ParadoxCount 2-4:
  * Careful interpolation between APPROVAL and DENIAL
  * Slightly favor APPROVAL with nuanced scoring
- For TimelineDeviation > 10 AND ParadoxCount < 2:
  * Bonus: Add 0.5 points to APPROVAL score
  * Reduced penalty if TimelineDeviation is strong
- For TimelineDeviation < 8 AND ParadoxCount > 5:
  * Add 0.25-0.5 bonus points to DENIAL score
  * Less aggressive divergence penalty

Final Classification:
- If APPROVAL score ≥ 4: Classify as APPROVED
- If DENIAL score ≥ 4: Classify as DENIED
- Borderline Zone (APPROVAL/DENIAL score 3.5-4):
  * Weighted interpolation with balanced consideration
  * Equal weight to metric interactions
  * Slightly favor metric with stronger absolute value
- If scores are exactly tied or within 0.5 points: Require additional review

Tiebreaker Criteria:
- Prioritize balanced metric interactions
- Moderate penalty for low or negative metric combinations
- Use progressive scoring to reduce decision cliff effects
- Default to DENIAL only in truly ambiguous scenarios with multiple low metrics
