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 10 < TimelineDeviation ≤ 12: Add 2 points to APPROVAL score
- If 8 < TimelineDeviation ≤ 10: Add 1.5 points to APPROVAL score
- If 7 < TimelineDeviation ≤ 8: Add 1 point to APPROVAL score
- If 5 ≤ TimelineDeviation < 7: 
  * Interpolate 1-2 points to DENIAL score
  * If ParadoxCount is also low (≤ 2), add an additional 0.5-1 point to DENIAL score
- If TimelineDeviation < 5: Add 2-3 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 3 < ParadoxCount ≤ 4: Add 2 points to APPROVAL score
- If 2 < ParadoxCount ≤ 3: Add 1.5 points to APPROVAL score
- If 1 < ParadoxCount ≤ 2: Add 1 point to DENIAL score
- If ParadoxCount ≤ 1: 
  * Add 2-3 points to DENIAL score
  * Implement an aggressive penalty if TimelineDeviation is also low

Critical Interaction and Balance Rules:
- Introduce a "Metric Balance Coefficient":
  * Calculate the ratio between TimelineDeviation and ParadoxCount
  * If ratio indicates high imbalance (e.g., one metric is > 3x the other):
    - Add 0.5-1 point penalty to the score with lower value
    - Reduce potential score for the overcompensating metric

Negative ParadoxCount Special Handling:
- If ParadoxCount < 0:
  * If absolute(ParadoxCount) ≤ 1: Add 2.5-3 points to DENIAL score
  * If absolute(ParadoxCount) > 1 AND ≤ 2: 
    - Add 3.5 points to DENIAL score
    - Reduce potential APPROVAL score by 1.5 points
  * If absolute(ParadoxCount) > 2:
    - Add 4 points to DENIAL score
    - Completely nullify potential APPROVAL score

Compensatory and Edge Case Mechanisms:
- For TimelineDeviation ≤ 8 AND ParadoxCount ≤ 3:
  * Strongly penalize potential APPROVAL
  * Add 1-1.5 points to DENIAL score
- For TimelineDeviation > 10 AND ParadoxCount < 3:
  * Add 0.5 bonus points to APPROVAL score
- For TimelineDeviation < 7 AND ParadoxCount > 5:
  * Add 0.5 bonus points to DENIAL score

Final Classification:
- If APPROVAL score ≥ 4: Classify as APPROVED
- If DENIAL score ≥ 4: Classify as DENIED
- Borderline Zone (APPROVAL score 3.5-4, DENIAL score 3.5-4):
  * Use weighted interpolation with stricter lean towards DENIAL
  * Strongly favor DENIAL if TimelineDeviation is low
- If scores are exactly tied or within 0.5 points: Require additional review

Tiebreaker Criteria:
- Prioritize interpolated scoring
- Give more weight to low or negative metric values
- Slight preference for DENIAL in ambiguous scenarios, especially with low metrics
