The existing social credit blacklists use these numbers, as do almost all activities in China. But these codes are not scores or rankings

Instead, individuals or companies are blacklisted for specific, relatively serious offenses like fraud and excessive pollution that would generally be offenses anywhere. To be sure, China does regulate speech, association, and other civil rights in ways that many disagree with, and the use of the social credit system to further curtail such rights deserves monitoring.

Same difference.

It doesn't matter -- the Chinese "social credit score" as it is it understood in the West simply does not exist.
