Congressional funding expansion for DHS biometric surveillance represents substantive constitutional concern. Civil_rights scores 4.5 due to Fourth Amendment privacy implications and mass surveillance infrastructure expansion affecting broad population. Rule_of_law at 3.5 reflects normalization of warrantless biometric collection. Separation at 2.5 shows executive branch surveillance power expansion via legislative funding. Capture at 2 reflects potential contractor/surveillance industry influence. Resource_reallocation mechanism adds 15% modifier as it creates durable infrastructure. Federal scope with broad population adds 20% modifier. Severity: durability 1.2 (infrastructure persists), reversibility 0.9 (technically reversible but politically difficult), precedent 1.1 (incremental expansion). A-score: (0+3.5×0.18+2.5×0.16+4.5×0.14+2×0.14+1×0.10+0)×1.067×1.15×1.2=30.3. B-score modest: outrage_bait 3 (privacy advocates concerned but limited mass appeal), low meme_ability, moderate novelty. Layer2 minimal strategic indicators. Intentionality low (routine appropriations process). Final B=6.0. Delta=+24.3 clearly List A.
