Optimal Strategy Verdict
High songwriter favorability in SOTY
Submit Paper Crown for Song of the Year and Neon Heartbreak for Record of the Year to maximize split-category leverage.
The Recording Academy's general field voters consistently bifurcate technical production prowess from pure songwriting. By submitting Neon Heartbreak (96 Production) to Record of the Year and Paper Crown (95 Lyrical Craft) to Song of the Year, Swift avoids splitting her voter bloc across identical ballots.
