Why is this a Gas Dwarf?Your planet has an unusual composition that doesn't fit standard classifications, or lacks the elements needed for complex geological processes.
Barren worlds can form from uncommon element combinations or may be remnants of larger bodies that lost their atmospheres and volatile materials.
Classification Criteria:

Contributing Factors
water15
No solid surface — any water is locked in a supercritical mantle and hot ice, not oceans
geology60
Some geological activity provides slow nutrient cycling
rotation65
Slow rotation - significant day/night temperature variations, but life can adapt
Organic Chemistry50
Carbon and hydrogen present - organic chemistry possible
atmosphere30
Hydrogen-rich atmosphere typical of gas giants
temperature100
Optimal temperature range for liquid water and life
magnetic Field100
Magnetic field provides radiation protection
