No, I do want the MINUS value as large or nearly as large as the lesser of the two scores. I am avoiding scoring BOTH SC and SC2 (test version) at full combined value on the same email. I am also avoiding scoring both SC and XS fully. The idea is that either of those probably represent a duplicate finding so score X or Y, but not X+Y. Since X AND Y are both already scored when this test succeeds we subtract the smaller of the two scores or a proportion of the smaller scores if we feel there is some value in "double hits." -- Herb
