would you please elaborate a bit more on that? is it due to limitations 
in the .HYP file, in the classifier, or perhaps both?

well, in its current form, I can only agree with you; but what if you 
just think to sort of a "hash signal strength", and then set 
thresholds, thus creating different classes?

I can imagine here & now a signed value, where min=bad, 0=neutral and 
max=good. Then you can further subdivide the full range in order to 
carve out as many classes as needed. Possibly on the fly, by the way.

that's a completely different approach, and of course I'm absolutely 
_not_ sure it may even work at all... but size-wise it would beat the 
crap out of the N-class scores per token.

to sum it up: if we go for a revolution, hell, let's do it :-)
