Oy, this is AGGRAVATING.
I'm doing my best not to take it all as criticism of my research, but it's incredibly difficult.
I had my great-grandmother's profile open when this score thing appeared. I eventually managed to click enough times to dismiss all the nonsense: yes, they really did get married when she was eight months pregnant with their third child. (Or fourth, if you count the stillbirth.)
So then I went to my great-grandfather, and guess what? It expects me to do it all over again.
I refuse. If I dismissed the EXACT SAME NONSENSE on the wife, why is it still there on the husband???
Can I PLEASE just turn this off? I don't need this kind of added stress in my life.
Pretty please with a cherry on top?

There is still a "Turn Off" option on the Labs page. I just used it to test before replying, and now I can't turn it back on.

I never turned it on in the first place; perhaps that's why the "TURN OFF" button on that labs page isn't doing anything for me, as far as I can tell.
Clicking the button changes nothing on that page, and profiles all still have the score.
(Why does "Go To Experiment" take me to Abraham Lincoln's read-only profile?)

Try the Disable button on this page:
I suspect teething problems tonight because I'm getting all pages in Spanish with all settings to any language.

Definitely teething: the first time, that "Disable Experiment" button opened the Labs page in a new tab; ten minutes later, it tried to do so, but got stuck in some sort of loop and showed only the footer; and now the button's not doing anything.

Yes, and still having issues this morning.

The new quality score: I don't mind this, if it helps us find more information. But, I get a feeling of "You are doing this wrong, can't you find the records, etc. First, not all who put their info on their family names, have money or access to all the sites that have the best information, because they can't afford it. Many of the ancestors don't have records to show the information, but it comes from bibles and family records from the past, etc. It looks like the person adding info is doing it wrong. Very negative….Also, the tag on quality score for adding tag sources: I don't tag the sources to the personal vitals page. It takes up so much room in the computer, your's and mine. It's a waste of space. All the sources that have been added are on the source page. There doesn't have to be 2 or 3 different places for that info to be on the family group sheet. If that was removed, the quality score would be higher. For instance on one of my people: I have every space provided for the info done correctly, but because I don't TAG the info under their name and vitals, I have a medium or low score. I find the other 4 or 5 quality tags okay. Lets don't forget what this whole system was for the LDS to have work done. Not show us how we are wrong.

@RobertBeers, you and I have very different ideas about the purpose of the Family Tree. (I'm not LDS.)
I don't understand how source tagging could possibly take up ANY room whatsoever on anyone's computer. It's a link between a conclusion and a source; that's not even a single character's worth of space.
I kind of agree, though, that flagging a lack of tags in the score is unlikely to be useful, because it's ridiculously easy to get rid of it by going too far in the other direction: if you simply make it a habit to tag everything to everything, regardless of whether that source has anything whatsoever to do with that conclusion, then you'll improve all the scores while seriously disimproving all of the profiles.
The more I think about and explore this score business, the less I like it — and I started off mildly hating it.

Hello everyone :) Thank you for the feedback. This Lab experiment went live yesterday. Currently this is live for everyone and can not be turned off. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, feelings, kudos and frustrations. I am sorting and sending your information to the engineers.
