When impressions hold (down 5% or less) but clicks crater (down 25% or more), that decoupling is active AI-Overview interception - it forces EVAPORATING regardless of the score, even when no single signal scored 0.

EVAPORATING

Why: Impressions held at +3% while clicks fell 30% - the interception signature - so the page reads EVAPORATING even though only the decoupling signal is below clean. weakest signal 1/2 · 5 of 6 signals clean.
