Why This Score

This event describes ordinary legislative disagreement over a minor policy issue (daylight saving time). There is no constitutional mechanism implicated—no election, rule of law, separation of powers, civil rights, capture, corruption, or violence dimension is engaged. Severity multipliers default to neutral since there is no actionable driver. On the B-scale, the topic has mild human-interest/novelty appeal (time policy debates recur periodically) but lacks any strategic distraction signals, media firestorm potential, or intentional narrative pivot. Both A and B scores fall well below thresholds, confirming classification as Noise.
