China doesn’t have a good track record of policies: the pest control, the one child. One could also argue that their economy is also showing a crisis in the future.

This system if it is unstable and has side effects will probably screw up two generations at least.

The main issue I see is that people with low scores can “infect” other people’s scores. Considering this like a viral phenomenon the score will be impacted starting with family, friends, colleagues, strangers. I can’t see a solution except going the old route of “killing the nine family relations”.

I can see some kind of ghetto of low social score people doing barter and what not.

There are some contradictions like donating blood giving good score but what if for someone with a low score. There goes empathy if punished.

Or some exploits like colluding and creating cartels of increasing social score artificially.
