I bet there's a mistake on your site.

You propose to:
ADD a point for every 32kb of package (rounded up to a multiple of 32kb)
and
SUB a point or a few for every nice feature.

This way, originally assuming that the higher the score the better the
program I conclude that the program must be damn HUGE (on the Megabytes
scale) and DO NOTHING in order to achieve MAXIMUM SCORE.

Have you slept well last night?

Good Luck
