Filters don't allow negative Min Score
I'm trying to make a filter for "Not that negative" posts, imagining "Net score > -2," but the UI of the filter creator only lets you put in Min Score between 0 and 1, with a step size on the spinner of 0.01.
<div class="form-group">
<label class="form-element" for="min_score">Min Score</label>
<input type="number" name="min_score" id="min_score"
min="0" max="1" step="0.01" class="form-element form--filter"
data-name="min_score">
</div>
Maybe I misunderstand what "Score" means? Is it not the Positive votes minus the Negative votes?

We've added some better guidance in the UI, including the score ranges (0-1) and a link to the scoring help. The layout isn't as nice as it would be if the work had been done by someone with a deeper understanding of how to do front-end layout, but perfect is the enemy of done, so here's something that's a little better I hope.

"Score" isn't net votes. It's the Wilson Score, where 0.5 is the midpoint. See Codidact's scoring help page.
