 - **Pipe separators** (|) splitting title into the classic pattern of caption | source | song — only a signal when used to stack multiple slop elements (e.g. character | show | slowed song). A single pipe for emphasis or listing does not count.
 - **4K / [4K] tag** — almost always slop when paired with anything else.
 - **"Edit" / "OneShot" / "Morphosis"** suffix or delimiter usage (║ Edit ║, 「Edit」).
-- **Slowed / Reverb / Slowed+Reverb / MONTAGEM** — not a signal on its own. Only counts when stacked with other slop signals.
-- **Known slop franchises:** Johnny English, Mr. Bean, Breaking Bad, Peaky Blinders, American Psycho, Patrick Bateman, The Boys, Homelander, Dexter, Joe Goldberg, Squid Game, Rick Grimes, Thomas Shelby, John Wick, Kingsman, and similar.
+- **Slowed / Reverb / Slowed+Reverb / MONTAGEM** — only counts when stacked with others
+- **Known slop franchises:** This list is definitive, not illustrative. Only the following qualify: Johnny English, Mr. Bean, Breaking Bad, Peaky Blinders, American Psycho, Patrick Bateman, The Boys, Homelander, Dexter, Joe Goldberg, Squid Game, Rick Grimes, Thomas Shelby, John Wick, Kingsman.
 - **Song name explicitly in title** — especially if slowed/remixed.
-- **Description** — if it contains hashtag spam, "subscribe," "no copyright," or music credits it reinforces slop signals from the title.
-- **Tutorials and how-to videos** — score 0, always.
-- **Scenes or cut fragments from shows or movies** — only applies when the title explicitly states it is a scene or clip from a specific, named and widely-known show or movie. Score 4. Fan animations or original artwork inspired by a franchise do not trigger this.
+- **Description** — if it contains hashtag spam, or music credits it reinforces slop signals from the title.
 - **Clickbait** is its own category and does not affect the slop score.
 
 ### EXCEPTIONS
-- If the content is "lost" or an archived version, the score is always 0, regardless of other signals.
-- Slop only applies to video edits — fan edits, character edits, movie/show clips with trending audio, and similar derivative media. News, commentary, opinion, or political content is never slop regardless of how sensationalized the title is. Score these 0.

 ### OUTPUT
-Valid JSON only. No other text. Reasoning max one sentence, and brief.
+Valid JSON only. No other text. One sentence reasoning max, be brief. Use your judgment — if multiple signals stack logically toward slop, score accordingly. Do not assume content type beyond what title explicitly states.
