negative_payload. The song carries a coded sexual payload as its whole engine, so it routes to negative_payload rather than any transcendence or neutral-craft path. There is no elevating claim to weigh against; the charge is the payload. START AT ZERO. The arc addresses a lover who reads as polished and self-possessed in public and turns wild and uninhibited in private. The repeated hook decodes to sexual abandon behind closed doors, glimpsed only out where people dance, with the singer cast as the sole keeper of that hidden erotic secret. Verses and bridge stack coded physical desire (bodies twisting together, heels dropping, a plea for pleasure lasting the night). The frame is a fleeting, time-limited hookup, casual enough that the singer expects to be gone by morning. HARM -28, PERVASIVE. Degraded under tenet 8: coded sexual objectification and body-centering. The lover is appraised through a concealed physical performance; worth is located in the hidden appetite rather than the whole person. This is not incidental to one line, it is the song's spine, so the payload is PERVASIVE (present across hook, verses, and bridge), not a single degraded beat. Crucially there is NO malice, NO possession, and NO substance use anywhere in the arc; the whole charge is mutual lust and the thrill of a concealed appetite surfacing where no one watches. That ceiling on the harm (objectification only, nothing coercive or cruel) is why this lands mid-band Degraded and not lower. TRANSCENDENCE 0. Nothing in the arc reaches toward meaning, repair, or elevation. The payload neither redeems nor deepens; it stays at the level of coded appetite. No transcendent counterweight to net against the harm. CENTER -27. Harm -28 pervasive, transcendence 0, nets to a center of -27: solidly Degraded (orange), mid band. VERNIER sat=1 res=-1 reg=-1 reach=-1. Saturation modestly present (the coded appetite is the sustained subject). Resolution, register, and reach each pull slightly negative: the coded-seduction framing offers no lift, and the concealment motif closes rather than opens. PRECEDENT -28. Anchored to the club/party flirtation precedent: a dance-floor seduction whose payload is coded physical desire and a shared secret, no malice or possession. Sits at the -28 precedent line for that class. CONTAMINATED false. No cross-tenet contamination; the payload is single-axis (sexual objectification), cleanly within tenet 8. DOGMA false. No load-bearing doctrine or reverence claim; R14 does not apply.

sex (dominant), party. The erotic appetite is the dominant subject; the dance floor / club setting is the secondary frame. CONFIDENCE 0.72. The arc and the coded-hook decode are clear; the residual uncertainty is only how much the concealment motif should weigh, which does not move the band.
